Mogok(Ruby Land) , Myanmar(Burma)

Welcome to Ruby land. Long closed to foreigners, the ruby-mining town of Mogok is now open to visitors with the necessary permits. With 90% of the world's rubies coming from Myanmar, Mogok and the surrounding area is a key hub of the ruby trade, with much of the mining done by hand.
.
As well as rubies, you'll find sapphires, emeralds, and lapis lazuli and other semi-precious gems on sale in the markets. Many of the traders are Chinese or Indian. If you're interested in purchasing any stones, be sure you know what you are doing, as this isn't a place for rookie gem-buyers.
.
In addition to rubies, Mogok has a beautiful mountain setting with a significant Shan population, as well as Palaung and Lisu. There are a number of eye-catching pagodas and a WWII cemetery containing the remains of British soldiers who died fighting nearby.
