“The ancient city, Mottamawari, has
beautiful scenery and unique attractions for tourists,” experts told a
ecotourism workshop in Mottama.
There are many things to study out of
the city’s wall. Moreover, Mottama mountain range is not too high and
therefore, it is suitable place to develop hotels.

“History says it was a place where a
Thai princess settled down with a Mon merchant. So it could attract
visitors from Thailand. Plus, historic sites like Dhammaadei and temples
could bring more historians for their interest,” Dr.Min Nwe Soe
continued.

works on building hotels on the mountain range, and inscribing in
Myanmar and English languages on billboards about the history of the
places of interest. Respective departments such as Hotels and Tourism,
