Inva is an old ancient city. Although the city wall is already dilapidated, there are many older stupas, which are very beautiful and indeed worth savoring. There is no huge Angkor, but it is very pleasant to sit in a carriage and sway.

    The ancient city of Ingwa should be the most worth visiting of Mandela's four ancient cities. Inside, a carriage will go to 4 more famous attractions, each worth seeing. It has always been the capital of the Myanmar dynasty.

    The carriage in the ancient city of Inva can drive the horse by yourself and let the coachman help you. At that time, I didn't wear glasses to drive the horse. I wanted to laugh while driving the horse. The road was not clear at all. Haha, I brought everyone to the ditch. It is worth coming, there are many monuments.

    1. 30 kilometers away from Mandalay, most of the tourists come with the group; 2. But if you rent a motorcycle or bicycle, you can take a ferry near the Shiji Ancient City Bridge. It costs 1,400 Kyats per person without a car and 2,000 Kyats per person with a car, which can save 10 kilometers of journey; 3. Most tourists who do not have a surrogate vehicle will choose to rent a horse-drawn carriage or a horse-drawn carriage. The cost of a circle around the city is 10,000 Myanmar yuan, about 50 RMB; 4. The protection of the ancient city is not good, and there are not many remains to be visited, and they are dirty. There are two must-see attractions - "Nanmyin Watch Tower, Mal Nu Monastery, 5. There is also an Inva Museum with fewer exhibits and free visits; 6. Tickets are included in the Datong Ticket (10,000 Myanmar).

    The ancient city of Inva needs a boat + carriage, amphibious land and water to reach, and a ride in a carriage is enough to feel. A large number of buildings have been destroyed during World War II. At the end there is an old temple, which is said to be the oldest in Inva. The whole temple is made of teak and is very strong. Unlike many temples in Myanmar, the temple is very simple and natural. There is a school in the temple. If you are lucky, you can see the local children reading here and experience the life of Inva.

    Located in the southwest suburb of Mandalay, the ancient city of Inva is surrounded by the Irrawaddy River and its tributary, the Mitange River. It is an island forgotten by history. In 1287, the Pugan Dynasty was destroyed by Kublai Khan in the Yuan Dynasty, and the Shan people established the Inva Dynasty in the north. In 1555, the Inva Dynasty was destroyed and the capital fell. It wasn't until 1839 that it was completely destroyed by the earthquake that it faded out of the historical arena. Nowadays, scattered ruins and ruins are hidden among the lush trees on the island. In the farmland, Inva, the ancient capital of several generations, glory and disputes have gone far. Only these ruins can be polished in the lush countryside. Because of the destruction of World War II, a large number of buildings in the ancient city were severely damaged, leaving a large number of buildings with broken walls. Now we can see that there are only four main relics left. They are the "Bogaya Temple, the new Mifo Pagoda in Yatana, the Watchtower and Mahaon Mae Temple. Some of these relics are in ruins, some are still in the old beauty. Standing in front of them, how can they walk quietly for hundreds of years? Those temples and pagodas seem to be like this all their lives. Time flies, but they remain calm. To go to the ancient city, you need to cross the river by ferry and go back and forth to 800 Kyat. The best way to visit the ancient city is by carriage, but you can also take your own rented bicycle or motorcycle and gallop freely on the ridges. The carriage is 5000 Kyat for two hours. The extra time will be added. It is almost impossible to visit the ancient city on foot. Historically, the ancient city of Inva witnessed the subjugation of a Chinese emperor. In 1661, the Qing army invaded Yunnan and Yongli Emperor exiled in Mandalay, the capital of Myanmar. He was taken in by Mangda, the ancient city of Inva. After Wu Sangui invaded Myanmar, Mang Da's brother Mang Bai took the opportunity to launch a coup and killed his brother's successor. On August 12, 1661, Wangbai launched the water curse, killing the guards of Emperor Yongli. By January 22, 1662, Mangbai dedicated Yongli Emperor to Wu Sangui, and the Ming Dynasty's imperial rule was completely destroyed. The boat crossed the Mitange River, the ancient city of Inva, which took over the Emperor Yongli. Up the hill you can see a spectacular caravan. The price here is almost the same. We just choose one and leave. It happens to be the first day of the Lunar New Year's 1st Lunar New Year. Taking a carriage is a pleasure. Horses kick and kick toward the ancient city. Soon we can see the red wall hidden in the dense woods of South China, and occasionally the Buddha pagoda pierces the green curtain. We went south along the city wall, then east through a paddy field, and came to the Baojiaya Temple outside the ancient city.

    The ancient city of Inva has a great origin with China. It is said that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty fled here and was finally killed by Wu Sangui, who ruled for 300 years. Here you can report a bullock cart tour, all of which need tickets.

    If Mandalay is a modern city (in fact, Mandalay is in a thriving development with construction sites and scaffolding everywhere), the charm of the historical monuments around the city goes far beyond Mandalay itself, Among them is the ancient city of Ingwa, which is full of rural wild fun. The ancient city of Inwa has been the capital of Myanmar four times (and the Upper Myanmar region is often referred to as the "Inwa Kingdom"), and this simple number shows that the rulers of successive generations have a complex emotional attitude to this place, love and hate, and are inseparable. Setting aside its rich history, it remains a sparsely isolated countryside dotted with relics, temples and pagodas. It is so quiet, primitive and mysterious compared to the bustling city of Mandalay. Ferries are essential to reach the ancient city of Inva. Although only a few minutes' voyage, this mode of transportation has put Inwa on a mysterious veil. Our ferry is headed by a brother with a neat row of teeth, but betel nuts have painted them yellow and black. But it didn't hinder the infectiousness of his smile at all - clean, direct, sincere. Traveling in the ancient city, the carriage is the first choice for most tourists, of course, there are more physical and energetic people who will choose bicycles, because this can visit more hidden villages, discover the surprises and beauty outside the regular route of the carriage. Inva's main attractions include Baojiaya Temple, Nanmin, Mahayana Temple, etc., but in addition, along the way, many ancient temples and old city walls hidden in the sidewalk trees will be encountered, although they have been abandoned for many years, although they are already ruined and broken walls, but more interesting and charming. Inva ancient city can be seen everywhere rice fields, lush and vibrant, like this country, although once full of ruins, but still has a future of Nirvana rebirth.
