Vipassana Meditation in myanmar

Myanmar is a multi racial and multi religious country. About 90% of the people in Myanmar are Buddhist. Many Vipassana Meditation Centers based on Buddha's teachings are widely opened throughout the country. Vipassana meditation is taught in Myanmar during the ten-day residential courses. This period has been found to be the minimum requirement for new meditators to understand the technique and its benefits through their own experience. Here is some information on the Meditation Centers so that one can plan the Meditation trips in Myanmar.
