Top 10 Gift & Specialty Shops in Yangon (Rangoon), Yangon Region
Yangon (formerly known as Rangoon) is no longer the capital of Myanmar, but it has experienced a huge increase in tourism recently. Book early, as hotel rooms are sometimes hard to find! While you’re in town, the Shwedagon Pagoda, an immense, ancient Buddhist shrine, is a must-see—TripAdvisor travelers recommend visiting at sunrise or sunset.

I purchased an engagement ring for my fiancee at My-Hoya, in Minge's new shop located in downtown Yangon. Minge was super helpful and showed me lots of different options, styles and gemstones from her collection, all in the comfort of the new shop based in a converted apartment with plenty of refreshments so I had plenty of time and didn't feel rushed. In the end I decided on a beautiful blue sapphire from Myanmar and Minge set it in a custom-made pave style gold engagement ring - with matching earrings. The stone and the ring look great and my fiancee loves it! It is really nice to have something unique to remind us of our time in Myanmar rather than a traditional diamond, and I would not have been able to make the choice without visiting the shop and seeing all the options in person. But much more than this I have to say a special thank you to Minge for making the ring for us during very difficult circumstances. I ordered just two days before the military coup but Minge still managed to make and deliver the ring on-time for our proposal on Valentine's day! I think she was just as excited as I was and really keen for my partner to have her perfect ring, she pulled out all the stops. We've since become friends with Minge and her husband Gili and had some more opal earrings made before we left Myanmar, which are also fantastic. We hope to be back one day and see you both again soon!

This small shop is a gem in the madness that is Bogyoke Aung San Market. Excellent selection of well made Chin style textiles. Friendly and not hard sell like the rest of the market. Very easy to find on the second floor of the Bogyoke Aung San Market. Best to go up the overpass staircase and access the second floor from there. Prices are on the high side, but still fair for the quality. There is a small selection of antique and vintage pieces as well; ask the owner to show you. These are very high priced; international level but very nice quality. Highly recommend.
