Lawkananda Pagoda

多多

There are some stalls selling things and some vendors selling snacks before the stairs leading to the Golden Pagoda. The Golden Pagoda is not very big, but the afterglow of the sunset shining on it is very beautiful. This is also a good place to watch the sunset. The setting sun is reflected on the river, and the small boats used to carry people to the other side are very interesting. There are also some food stalls nearby, but we didn't try them.

Ananda Temple

金媛 Amy Jin

Myanmar's ancient city, in the early morning of Bagan, watching the sunrise over the city of pagodas is sacred and beautiful! If you can stay a few more days, you can really go to different places to watch the sunrise from different angles, with different scenery, in short, it is very shocking!

Dhammayangyi Temple

M36***49

The door leading to the Buddhist hall in the corridor has been sealed and cannot be entered. It is said that it is the place where King Nalehu was assassinated. Later generations thought it was quite scary, and it was sealed because it was not completed. It is worth a visit!

Shwezigon Pagoda

M30***11

The pagoda with a heavy weight of Bagan is exquisite and the promenade at the door can be concave. Ruixi Palace is also maintained due to the earthquake. There are some regrets. There is a small puddle in front of Ruixi Palace Tower where you can take a reflection. You can go and see it when you go.

[Destination Guide] Preparation before the trip: Bagan is the best historical ancient city, Buddhist cultural site, and tourist attraction in Myanmar. Personally think it is the best place in Myanmar. People must come once in their lives. Traffic strategy: Bagan is located in the middle of Myanmar, located on the left bank of the middle of the Irrawaddy River. The traffic is not particularly convenient. It is definitely not comparable to the domestic one. If you go from Mandalay, it is cheaper to take the bus but it takes a long time. Four or five hours. The gun car costs more than 600, three or four hours. There is a plane in the morning and evening. If you discount it, it is not expensive. It is more than 300 yuan for one person. It is estimated that it will take more than three hours to go to the airport and the plane. The disadvantage is that the time is fixed. When you arrive at Bagan Bus Station, if you go to the hotel, there is another payment. Basically, the taxi does not play the watch, and more than 10,000 local coins can be done. Local must punch in: Bagan Buddha Tower is hundreds of thousands. If you really go to the main stupa, you have to take two days. Tourists may not remember to live. It is better to pick some key points, such as Dama Yangji Tower (the largest brick tower), Ananda Temple (this is the most beautiful), Dabinnuo Temple (this is the highest), Ruishan Tota (this can climb up to see the sunset, but now it is not allowed to climb), there are many unknown towers, different styles, like Longmen Grottoes, There are various Buddha statues, there are Lifo, sitting Buddha, lying Buddha, some are brick towers, some are stone towers, and some are Shwedagon Pagodas. All these tower temples must take off their shoes and go to the countryside as usual. It is a little pain that the feet step on. Food guide: The local dishes are more oily, to be honest, there is no recommendation, and Thailand can not be compared. Shopping guide: The most famous locals are puppets, lacquerware and sand paintings. There are shopping spots in front of each major temple. You can also buy it in the hotel, which is actually not expensive. Travel experience: It is said that this four hundred and eighty temples in the southern dynasty are very magnificent. Today, there are very few left in Nanjing. Bagan still has more than 4,000 pagoda temples at this time. The size is different. Most of them are heritages from the tenth to the twelfth centuries. Many years of disrepair, tourists can climb the tower to watch the sunrise in previous years, and government management has been strengthened in recent years. Can not climb the tower, although lost some scenery, but did protect the world heritage small Tips: Bagan is a great place, never seen so many towers, very sacred, although the locals are very poor, but the people are good, maybe Buddhist countries, people are very simple. Be sure to respect the habits of locals and prepare to write 1000 local currency. It’s okay to tip some.

Bu Phaya Pagoda

137***66

The sun had already started to set and we hurried to one of the taller pagodas in the area – Shwesandaw Pagoda. The pagoda is majestic and can be seen from afar across the plains of Bagan and is also very popular among tourists for sunset viewing. We checked for our Archaeological Zone tickets here. Be careful when climbing the steep stairs to the top of Shwesandaw Temple to watch one of the most popular sunsets in Bagan.

Shwesandaw Pagoda

M30***77

A big pagoda, especially from a high place, can really feel the shock of his year. The beautiful language of sunrise and sunset is indescribable, and only immersive can you feel the spectacular feeling.

Manuha Temple

多多

It is very large and has been visited by many people. The shape is also very beautiful. The building itself is very spacious and magnificent. The base is white, and the second and third floors are all gold-plated. The overall white and gold color looks particularly good in the sun. You need to put on your slippers at the door and walk through a long corridor to enter the pagoda. Walking barefoot in the corridor hurts the soles of your feet, but out of respect for the local religion, no matter how painful it is, you must take off your shoes before entering any pagoda, and you can't even wear socks. The Buddha statue inside the pagoda should be the largest Buddha statue in the Bagan area. The Buddha statue in the pagoda has a skylight at the top, and the sunlight just comes in from the skylight and shines on the face of the Buddha statue. It was exactly 11 to 12 o'clock when I entered. The face of the Buddha statue at the south main gate was directly illuminated by the sunlight coming in from the skylight, with a faint golden light, and a calm and composed expression. A solemn feeling.
