On our arrival to the resort, we were greeted by the mythical Kinnara & Kinnari.

In Buddhist mythology, Kinnara is a paradigmatic lover, a celestial musician, half human and half bird. Kinnari, the female counterpart is depicted as half woman and half bird creature. It is believed they are everlasting lovers and never to separate, eternally husband and wife.

The elaborate costumes of a Kinnara and Kinnari are stunning, the butterfly wings are attached to the arms and back of the dancers so they can be opened and closed.

Incredible Experience at Aureum Palace Resort Inle Lake

Aureum Palace Resort, Inle Lake is an experience not to be missed on anyone’s visit to Inle Lake, Myanmar. It is one of the most beautiful resorts we’ve ever stayed in and provides a stunning views of the tranquil Inle Lake.

From the huge breakfast spreads to the dinners we had, the resort restaurant here was very good. Overall, we had a wonderful stay here. Our biggest disappointment?… only staying here for two nights!

Entrance, Lobby & Grounds

Our Room

Our room was a large separate villa/cabin (1080 sq. ft.) that sat over the water and was definitely the largest we’ve ever stayed in. This resort is a large facility that has 65 units that are spread out over several acres (some on the waterfront, some on land).
