Enjoy trekking around unspoiled waterfall near Mandalay

People who live in urban areas work or way of life is boring because they always do the same things every day according to the timetable. Their daily rotation runs regular way that goes to the offices or markets or schools in the morning and back homes in the evening. So everyone would like to escape the workplaces treadmill. The best way for taking rest is to get out to the country side in the weekend which not far from city so we will get refresh mind and restart our work effectively before the weekend. Therefore, I want to choose the best place for trekking and enjoying waterfall which is not far from Mandalay. The name of waterfall is 8 steps Waterfall. It is situated to the east of Mandalay and on the way of Mandalay-Pyin Oo Lwin Road. On the highway reach Ownchaw village you will see the street which is near the signboard of Myanmar Elephant Cement Industry if you come from Pyin Oo Lwin turn to left and if you come from Mandalay turn to right and go on to reach Three Season Tea Shop it takes about half an hour. After passing this shop, the street is narrower and then fifteen minutes later get the car and motorbike parking. This is the starting point of trekking and need to walk about twenty minutes. On the way, you will follow the way of see 3 steps Waterfall Way. A couple of minute later you will find a small shop and hear the sound of flowing water. After taking a rest a few minute at the shop, restart the trekking. I would like to suggest starting to 8 Steps Waterfall. The climbing way is behind the shop and it is very bluff so climb slowly because the way is rougher near to the waterfall. Half an hour later the panoramic view is waiting for visitor. The view is very pretty and every one may forget how much tired. The pond is not deep and the bottom stones are not slip so the fine place not only for playing but also for taking good photos. For spending about an hour there and then back hill down carefully to go to 3 Steps Waterfall. I think the 3 Steps Waterfall is more attraction because the water is fallen from very high mountain so the particle of water is formed the rainbow. The important things which you should take are a backpack, a bottle of mineral water and some snack. You should wear long and loose clothes, a big hat, sun glasses, and a jungle boot. The last important thing is a mask because of the way is very dusty. Do not forget to carry your waste to sustain our invaluable environments.
