For over a century, the Mandalay-Lashio Express has linked the heat-scorched plains of Myanmar to its high plateaux.
On a daily basis, traders, smugglers and travellers ride along the historic railroad. The sixteen-hour journey takes in some breathtaking sights. The country’s colonial past clashes with its entry into the modern era, as illustrated by the Goktheik Viaduct, built in 1900 by the British and fiercely protected by the authorities.
