Diverse Architecture in Yangon

🏚 Yangon, the former capital of Myanmar, remains the largest city in the country and is also the most famous commercial hub. 🏚 Myanmar was under British rule from 1824 to 1948. Therefore, the construction of various office buildings during that period followed the colonial style, including city planning and functional buildings such as post offices, banks, and customs departments. ðŸĪ Yangon is one of the most culturally rich cities in Southeast Asia, blending traditional and foreign cultures. Most of the architecture from that period has a strong Western influence. ðŸĒ After Myanmar gained independence, the government continued to use these buildings, maintaining them as needed. As a result, many colonial-era buildings still remain. ðŸĻ This makes Myanmar the country with the most remaining colonial architecture in the ASEAN region. 🏰 If you have the chance to visit Yangon, you will encounter beautiful Southeast Asian colonial architecture harmoniously blended with Myanmar's exquisite traditional architecture. 🌐 Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/UVF3pJsFiNFDgZE37
