EDITORS COMMENTS
Myanmar - Yangon: A Serene Moment at The Royal Lakes (circa 1910s) This photograph transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Yangon, Myanmar (formerly known as Rangoon, Burma), in the early 1900s. The image showcases the picturesque scene of The Royal Lakes, a tranquil and serene area that once served as a popular recreational spot for the British colonial rulers and local elites. The photograph reveals a peaceful pathway that leads along the eastern shores of the lake, where the gentle ripples of the water reflect the sunlight, creating a shimmering effect. The path is flanked by lush vegetation, with trees providing dappled shade and a sense of seclusion. In the distance, the iconic pagodas and stupas of Yangon's religious sites, such as the Shwedagon Pagoda and Kandawgyi Lake, can be glimpsed amidst the verdant landscape. The Royal Lakes, also known as Inya Lake, were a significant part of Yangon's colonial-era charm. The British, who ruled Myanmar from 1824 to 1948, developed the area around the lakes, constructing grand villas, clubs, and recreational facilities. The lakeside became a popular destination for leisurely strolls, boat rides, and picnics, offering a respite from the bustling city life. This photograph, with its timeless beauty and evocative atmosphere, invites us to imagine the stories of the people who once walked along this very path, enjoying the serenity and tranquility of The Royal Lakes in colonial-era Yangon.
