Some cloud sea camps in Nawnghkio Township, Shan State (North), are preparing to restart their businesses in the upcoming Thadingyut Festival, giving visitors to enjoy cloud glamping experiences, said U Pyae Sone Aung, an owner of Cloudy Villa.
The political climate forced the cloud sea camps in Nawnghkio Township to shut down business operations. Following the restoration of peace in the area, some camps are planning to return to normal operations.
“Cloud sea camps will be opened in November. Hopefully, it would attract many visitors. Nawnghkio is not that far from Mandalay. Homegrown visitors stopped in the city even during the coronavirus pandemic. We hope the camps will draw the attention of the holidaymakers,” he added.
Earlier, cloud sea camps in Nawnghkio Township started on the full moon day of the Thadingyut. Thousands of visitors used to flock to the Nawnghkio Township to enjoy the breathtaking view of the cloud sea. Of the 10 camps, at least seven are prepared to reopen. — ASH/KK
