Moulmein
(Redirected from Mawlamyine)
Moulmein or Mawlamyine in Myanmar (Burma) is where the Salween River flows into the Andaman Sea. It is probably best known to English speakers through the opening lines of Rudyard Kipling's poem "The Road to Mandalay": "By the old Moulmein pagoda / Lookin' lazy at the sea / There's a Burma girl a-settin' / and I know she thinks o' me".
