The people of Inle Lake live in mostly wooden homes resting on stilts. As they live in and on a lake, the primary mode of transport is these small wooden boats or canoes.
This series of photos highlight the Inle Lake people as they go about their day on the lake – the brightly coloured boats with seats are the tourist boats.

Didn’t see any at Inle Lake but we did at Bagan… coming up in a future installment 🙂
Any tips for Bagan? We are here now and loving it 🙂 looking forward to Inle lake!
one of the best things we did in Bagan was just wander around the stupas near our hotel, we had them to ourselves. Much smaller and more intimate than the bigger touristed ones.

Stilt villages are awesome but I’m guessing that there is no sanitation service and that water scares the hell out of me.
I certainly wouldn’t be drinking it and I think falling in you’d be best advised to keep your mouth closed. The lake it under considerable environmental threat and there are measures currently in place to try to reduce the impact of humans, introduced species and global change on the lake.
