Shwezigon Pagoda Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Take a horse-drawn carriage tour of Bagan's major stupas and watch a moving sunset
to the city of Bagan, the city of Wanfo. What you can't miss is to take a horse-drawn carriage to visit the big stupas and then watch a sunset!
We visited the Shwezigon Pagoda and the Htilominlo Temple, where many stupas were destroyed by the earthquake and are still being repaired, but it does not affect the visits of the people and the worship of the believers. !
At present, the Burmese government has banned the practice of climbing the stupa, so to watch the sunset, you can only go to a slightly higher slope! But fortunately, the sunset did not disappoint everyone! Drinking a can of Burmese beer against the beautiful sunset is a happy life!
Tips Bagan has hundreds of thousands of stupas, big and small, everyone can visit according to their own preferences! The price of the carriage parade is also different from your business according to your route and price!
Bagan, Myanmar: Ruixi Palace Tower
This golden pagoda is the oldest temple in Bagan. It is full of gold and golden. The tower stands on a tall square base, and the base is layered on top of each other. The Ruixi Palace Tower and the Ruiguang Dajin Tower are listed as the four major holy towers of Myanmar and are considered to be the most important holy places in Bagan.
This pagoda was built during the period of two kings, Anawrahta and Kyansittha. It is the founding tower of the Bagan dynasty, the source of the Burmese stupa, and a typical representative of early architecture.
Ri Xi Palace Tower is the founding tower, the prototype of the modern Buddhist pagoda in Myanmar, one of the four most famous Buddhist pagodas in Myanmar. It is not only the largest pagoda in Bagan, but also the Bagan Pagoda. The only stone-built stupa has a long history and is the first Burmese-style stupa. Each side of the
tower three-story platform has a small square temple with a small bronze Buddha. The tower is dedicated to the Buddha relics and Buddha ornaments from India, so it is very famous among believers. After sunset, the stupa will light up, so the tourists who arrive at night or early in the morning, the first thing they see is it.
Ri Xi Gong Pagoda is the most significant building in the history of religious architecture in Myanmar, because after this the stupa of all over Myanmar was built as a plaque, and its relationship with the traditional Burmese religion and the development of the Hinayana Buddhism Play a very important role.
People with faith, the heart should be very pure!
The Rixi Palace Tower is not only one of the oldest, most spectacular, and the most towering towers in Myanmar. It is also the most meaningful building in the history of religious architecture in Myanmar. The only stone-built stupa in the Bagan Tower is the first. It has a Burmese-style stupa. The Ruixi Palace tower is a square symmetrical structure. The center is a bell-shaped golden pagoda. The bottom is the base of a three-story square platform. The top is an octagonal platform connected to the bell tower. The tower of more than 40 meters is covered with dazzling gold foil, which is golden in the sun and luxurious. The tower is dedicated to a Buddha tooth relic, a jade carving Buddha statue sent by the Chinese emperor, so it is the largest and most respected pagoda in Bagan. It is also one of the most pagodas in Myanmar. Every day, people who come to worship are wishing to flow. Make this ancient tower less quiet and more prosperous.
Golden Shwezigon Pagoda
Without visiting Shwezigon Pagoda, visiting Bagan is not complete. Shwezigon pagoda is 160 feet in height and the one of the biggest pagodas in Bagan.

Manuha Temple Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
We were surprised by this place with the big bowl where devotees put in money and rice where donated. Quite charming. And apparently very popular among thr locals. We met a full company of soldiers that together with their leading officer (of cause properly videodocumented ) paid their respect to buddha. Interesting temple and worth a visit. #wintergetaway

The Manuha Temple was built by the king of the Bagan dynasty and is one of the most important temples in Bagan. As a imprisoned king, it is also possible to build a temple named after himself, which has to be said to be both surprising and curious. Manuha Temple is a small temple, but the incense is very prosperous. There are three large Buddha statues, one reclining Buddha, two sitting Buddhas, and huge Buddha statues. People need to look up, especially the one. The reclining Buddha almost fills the entire space, so that your passage in the brick wall can only pass sideways. That kind of huge squeaky feeling is easy to think of a depressed mood in the heart of the prince who built the tower. And such congestion is presumably because the funds were insufficient when the temple was built, and this very "grievance" temple was built. This seemingly modern temple has a history of nearly a thousand years. Due to the roadside, there are a lot of people here. Domestic tourists and tourists from other places like to go in and out, especially some locals. The children, who love to play in it, those little energetic figures add vitality to the ancient temples and drive away the boring.
Manuha Paya was built by the princes who were taken hostage by the Bagan dynasty. It is one of the most important temples in Bagan. The most memorable ones are three huge Buddha statues (one reclining Buddha, two Sitting Buddha, especially the Reclining Buddha.
This huge reclining Buddha has a very unique personality. There is no place for the Buddha in the brick wall except for a reclining Buddha. The tourists can only walk sideways. A huge sense of rush is on the way, so people can imagine the repair tower. The prince is a depressed mood.
And the smile of the corner of the Buddha's mouth seems to be the freedom that the prince wants. If you follow the towers to trace the past, you can see the back of a dynasty, and what kind of iron horses and swords are behind the towers.

Aureum Palace Hotel & Resort Bagan Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Bagan Tourism chooses to live in Bagan Alem Palace Resort. It should be the best hotel in Bagan. It is an average of 300 US dollars a night. It is like being surrounded by ancient temples. It is surrounded by ancient temples. It is really enjoyable. .
Bagan Alem Palace Resort is really very large. From the observation deck you can see a whole row of villa areas and there are multiple swimming pools. Its amazing to walk into the room. The standard room is really big. The sofas and decorations of the logs are said to be made of teak. It is not only a double bed, but also a sofa and balcony for the guests. It is really extravagant.
is still a wet and dry shared bathroom with a bathtub. The only thing that is not used to it is that the lights here are dark, and the bathroom door is the old folding door, very retro.
The resort is to have a good time. The outside of the restaurant is a swimming pool, with a meal, listening to the birds singing, and the unique sound of Burmese. The breakfast here is Western-style. If you are not used to eating more bread, you can do it very well here.
Tallinn is also opposite the swimming pool, which is reflected in the swimming pool. It is very beautiful. It is also a good place to take pictures. Don't miss it.
Tallinn was found in the evening of the previous day, about 500 meters from the hotel. Keep in mind, use the meal and hurry to explore. Good luck, this time the clouds gradually spread out, with a little blue sky appearing, a beam of sunshine shines on this Tallinn, very solemn.
