Naypyidaw is not really a ghost city. Grew up there & in Yangon and my family switches between the 2 constantly. The problem with Naypyidaw is that it’s too huge for the population it actually holds. There are people though. Day-to-day people live in dorm style housing, which makes the place feel even emptier.

Nice. I’ve been living in California since last year for college. My family lives between Naypyidaw and Yangon. I grew up mostly in Yangon with my mom and older brother. My dad was / is in Naypyidaw with his mistress most of the time. 🙃

 

As a Burmese, I’m always interested in hearing what foreigners have to say about our country since it’s relatively unknown…
