LOST KINGDOM
Amidst lotus ponds and mangroves on the banks of the Aungdat Creek and surrounded by paddy fields and the Rakhine Yoma foothills, Mrauk U Princess is your gateway into the lost kingdom of Arakan.
Begin you stay aboard our restored teak riverboat meandering up the Kaladan River, dining and relaxing from your journey beside water buffalo, river birds, paddy fields and a way of life that has remained almost unchanged for centuries, before arriving at your waterside destination.
From the hotel you can explore archaeological wonders and 500 year-old temples and stupas scattered across the hills of the former capital, once home to Bengali literati, Samurai mercenaries and Mughal Princes on the run, now visited by only the most pioneering travelers.
