Kandawgyi Park, Yangon (Rangoon)

Can get the fresh,air and public relax place

There are many things to do around the lake area, including visiting a couple of public parks, a plant nursery area, going for a walk around the lake, trying the food at one of the many restaurants around the lake, sitting in the shade and enjoying live music played and sung by park revelers, jogging, hiking, eating lunch, picnicking. This is a huge public space that rarely disappoints. Highly recommended.

The lake is a nice spot for a morning run. There are various entrances to the park surrounding the lake - on the southern side some will charge an entrance fee but access from the northern side was free of charge as of January 2020. The park on the northern side allows for some great pagoda views. At the time of writing this a boardwalk was being erected on the southern-west side but it was not complete, yet.

Morning walk on the bridge around the lake is the best.

This lake and the walk around it, it worth the effort. It is not a pristine English garden. The lake is full of algae and there is a bit of rubbish around. But the boardwalk has just been replaced and the new one creates a really nice way to walk around the lake. (FEB 2020 - It is almost finished but there are a few parts that are just being completed. There did not seems to be any signs , but you can find yourself at a dead end and have to walk back in a few places when you come upon the next lot of construction) All in all a great walk around.
