Almost a month of traveling around Burma, visiting monuments, looking for curiosities and traveling from one end of Burma to the other made me feel tired and a little tired. We decided to go to the Burmese sea and see the beaches there.
Our Hotel, very nice and inexpensive
We stayed at the RiverTop Logge Hotel. It was supposed to be a short 2 day stay but we stayed 9 days. Very cozy hotel, few guests and practically empty. Swimming pool available. Buffet breakfast included in the price, great service.
I didn't know that the women in Myanmar are so beautiful

We go to see the beach, which hardly any traveler mentions
On the way to the beach, we came across abandoned cars, probably once military, from the 1960s, when Burma was boiling, and the military Junta was ruling. As you can see, time did not spare them, the more so as the proximity to the sea and a large amount of salt accelerated their destruction.
They once served local fishermen, as evidenced by the fish-like sculptures on the car's loading area, and also as a local means of transport.
Ngapali Beach
First ascent and a pleasant surprise. There were only a few people on the beach, more locals than tourists, we ordered fruit from a local vendor who was pacing back and forth across the beach. She peeled the fruit on the spot. It was wonderful.

But further beyond the hotel beach there is a different, everyday life
Walking along the beach, we came to a place where life flows differently. Fishing villages where men go out to sea every morning and women dry the fish. Children play whatever they want, and day after day passes by.
