It's raining free beer in Burma

[IrishIvan]

WELCOME to Burma, the country where it rains free beer!

In a bid to boost visitor numbers, a tour company is offering guests free beer for every day is rains in the "golden land" of Burma (otherwise known as Myanmar), which is famous for its temples and unspoilt beauty.

Khiri Travel Myanmar announced that each adult guest will be given two chilled 600ml bottles of beer - or soft drink - if it rains for more than 10 minutes.

The offer runs until September 30 this year and is aimed at busting the misconception that Burma is wet during that period, resulting in some travellers turning away from the area.

Tourists can score the offer in Bagan, Mandalay and Inle Lake, but not in Yangoon or coastal beach resorts.

Excellent article - thanks for sharing.

Will move to Myanmar Travel section so it gets more coverage.

Wonder how many will actually find out about this and take up the offer?
