Myanmar Festivals of Lights ?
What’s the difference between the two 2 Festivals of Lights in Myanmar and is it possible join all of them ? What’s the difference between the two festival Thadingyut and Tazaungdaing ? If we can’t make to Taunggyi on time for the festival, is it possible to attend to the ceremonies in other venues? During Thadingyut do they set adrift lighted lanterns on the river in any district in Yangon too? Activities in Thadingyut and Tazaungdaing festival? What is the special activity in Thadingyut and Tazaungdaing festival? when will be the specific date of the Festival of Lights ?
