How to travel efficiently
There are three international airports in Myanmar. The international airports are Yangon, Mandalay, Naypyidaw. The center and main airport of Myanmar is Yangon International Airport, but you can also enter to Mandalay international airport and leave from Yangon international airport. Of course, you can also enter Yangon international airport and leave from Mandalay international airport.
The good view points of Myanmar is almost northern area, so you do not need to enter Yangon, and look around Northern area, and come back to Yangon, and depart to the other country.
After entering from Mandalay, sightseeing Mandalay, Bagan and Inle Lake, you move to Southern area, Hpa-an, Mawlamyine and Dawei. After that, you go to Yangon and sightseeing and depart to the other country.
This way is efficiently. And there are few good view points in Yangon not many good view points, so it is enough for just 1 or 2 days in Yangon.
Please think this way and check the air ticket. However, there are not many international flights from Mandalay International Airport, there are only a limited number of countries that can enter and leave from Mandalay.
