Ngwesaung

Ngwesaung (Burmese: ငွေဆောင် [ŋwè zàʊɰ̃]), also spelt Ngwe Hsaung, is a beach resort located 48 km west of Pathein, Ayeyarwady Region, Myanmar.

[3] The beach is 5 hours drive, with no traffic, away from the principal city of Yangon, and an airport is in the works.

Opened in March 2000,[1] Ngwe Hsaung is newer than nearby and more popular Chaung Thar Beach, and is designed to attract people with larger holiday budgets.

[4][5][6] An unspoilt 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) stretch of silvery sand and modern amenities have made Ngwe Hsaung a popular destination for less budget conscious tourists from Lower Myanmar.

At this point, a nearby elephant training camp is a main daytime attraction at Ngwe Hsaung.
