“This place has seen kingdoms rise and fall,” a man muttered, hitching his bag higher on his shoulder. We are standing in front of the Oasis Inn. It might seem like an ordinary motel now, but its address, 12 Yadanarbon Street, places it right in the heart of Mandalay’s rich tapestry of history. This very street would have been a bustling thoroughfare during Mandalay’s reign as the last royal capital of Myanmar. Imagine the echoes of horse-drawn carriages and the whispers of secrets exchanged in the shadow of the mighty Mandalay Palace, just a stone’s throw away from where the Oasis Inn stands today. The Oasis Inn, in its own quiet way, is a silent witness to the passage of time and the changing fortunes of this fascinating city.
