Inle Lake is famous for its floating villages and the fishermen who steer the boats with only one leg!

Can you swim in Inle Lake?
So, here's what I learned: Inle Lake is stunning, magical even, but it's not a place for swimming—not in the way I imagined, anyway. The lake is alive, full of people, animals, and plants, and it serves so many purposes for the people who live there—drinking water, washing, agriculture.
What is the best time to visit Inle Lake?
Best time to visit Inle Lake The ideal time to visit Inle Lake is during the dry season, between October and May. November, in particular, is very popular and hotels near the lake fill up quickly, so plan well in advance.
