Sein Yay Forest Camp

SEIN YAY FOREST CAMP

The Sein Yay Forest Camp is situated in the Kabuang reserve. It is 32 kilometres from Oktwin, and has been established especially for the Eco-Tourists - who would like to observe the world renowned Burmese teak forest in its natural state. Sein Yay Forest Camp provides accommodation for up to 100 visitors in comfortable cabins. The cabins have been built in various unique local architectural designs. Visitors are treated in the evenings to campfire meals - and entertainment by local ethnic Kayin villagers.

Visitors of Sein Yay Forest Camp are given the opportunity to study the life and culture of the native forest dwellers, experience elephant rides, as well as observe elephants
being used in logging operations in lieu of mechanical prime movers. Elephant logging causes minimal disturbance to the environment and biological diversity.

Young Ethnic Kayin villagers may be observed utilising bamboo containers to carry water from the various streams to the Kayin village of Shwedaung Ngwedaung. The Kayins
have their own style of living, wearing self-made hand woven clothing. They are hardworking and honest - and lead a simple life under the leadership to the village headman.
