Samkar Overview

Located at the south of Inle Lake, Samkar lake is connected through Belu Chaung creek. Samkar and Pekon lake was separated by Moe Bye Dam, which was built around 1970 to store water to supply two hydroelectric powers. The lake is a hidden gem in Inle Region for tourists who seek for tranquility. Samkar lake can be reached by a 3-hour scenic boat journey from Nyaung Shwe, where along the way, you will get to see interesting villages and immerse in beautiful landscapes.
