EDITORS COMMENTS
"A serene and enchanting scene overlooking Kandawgyi Lake in Yangon, Myanmar, features the majestic Karaweik Palace floating restaurant. Built in 1972, this royal barge-turned-restaurant is a popular tourist attraction and a symbol of Burmese culture. The golden architecture of the palace, adorned with intricate carvings and ornate details, reflects the rich history and tradition of Myanmar. The tranquil waters of Kandawgyi Lake mirror the palace's grandeur, creating a breathtaking reflection that adds to the magical ambiance. Surrounded by lush greenery and the gentle sound of birds calling in the background, the Karaweik Palace offers a unique dining experience like no other. The restaurant's name, Karaweik, translates to "Galaxy Queen" in Burmese, and the palace's design is inspired by the mythical bird, the Karaweik, which is said to have once lived in the lake. The bird, with its majestic wings spread wide, is a common sight at the restaurant, adding to the mystical allure of the place. The Karaweik Palace floating restaurant is more than just a dining destination; it is a must-visit attraction for anyone traveling to Yangon. Whether you're looking to enjoy a delicious meal while taking in the stunning views of the lake or simply wanting to experience a piece of Burmese history and culture, the Karaweik Palace is sure to leave a lasting impression."
