And also Myanmar is a delightful country, where eternal landscapes and ancient civilizations fill its vast land. Over half of the country is covered by thick tropical forests, beautifully golden pagodas and preserved temples fill the countryside. The temples are 2000 years old and covered in gold. Local peoples are wear skirt-like "longyi" and women decorate with Thanaka Running north to south, the huge Irrawaddy River dissects the country in two. For those on the lookout for adventurous travels in an extraordinary land, look no further than Myanmar. No-one argues Myanmar isn't one of the world's most exciting destinations.

Shwesandaw Pagoda:
The Shwesandaw Pagoda, or Shwesandaw Paya, is a Buddhist pagoda in the center of Pyay, Burma. It is one of the more important Buddhist pilgrimage locations in Burma.
Its magnificent surface glitters brilliantly in the sun during the day, and glows almost magically amid spotlights at night.
The Shwedagon Pagoda is located to the north of central Yangon, between People's Park and Kandawgyi. Grab a ticket at the counter and head over to the elevator, which will take you up to a set of raised platforms leading to the majestic stupa. As you emerge on the other side of the platform, and walk toward the base of the monument, you’ll see the stupa gradually unfolding before you, a sight that should not be missed

MANDALAY:
The Mandalay Palace, located in Mandalay, Myanmar, is the last royal palace of the last Burmese monarchy. The palace was constructed, between 1857 and 1859 as part of King Mindon's founding of the new royal capital city of Mandalay.

All buildings of the palace are of one storey in height. The number of spires above a building indicated the importance of the area below.
