Now that the military dictatorship in Myanmar is coming to an end the country has become one of the new frontier states on the tourist trail. The country is famous for it's temples and monks so I decided to look a bit more under the skin of the place so I focused on two local sports. One is called Sepak takraw and is like volleyball except you can only use your feet. it's very acrobatic. The rules are similar to volleyball in that the court and net are the same and each team gets three touches of the ball before it has to be returned over the net. Looking at the images after the game it's amazing to see the acrobatic position the players achieve when flying through the air.
