What are the tourist attractions worth visiting in Myanmar?

What are the tourist attractions worth visiting in Myanmar? As we all know, Myanmar is a poor country, but it is getting better and better in recent years. The environment and air in Myanmar are very good. The following are the scenic spots worth visiting in Myanmar. You can get to know them first.

Mandalay

Mandalay, the famous ancient capital of Myanmar, witnessed the glory of the last kingdom of Myanmar. It is now the second largest city in Myanmar and one of the political, economic and cultural centers of Myanmar. The trip to Mandalay is divided into overseas tour and domestic tour. So, you can visit for two days and arrive on the first day. Because of the long flight time, you can walk around the city.

Arrive at Mahamouni Pagoda, which is 3 kilometers south of the city center. It is the most important pilgrimage site in the hearts of the Burmese people. When you enter the pagoda, I believe you will be shocked by the huge bronze Buddha statue, which is covered with gold leaves and is more than 16 cm thick. For the first time, it is understandable why Myanmar is called the country of Buddhism.

Next to the Buddha statue, there will be male believers sticking gold leaves on the Buddha statue, offering them devoutly and praying for the safety of their families, while female believers will kneel on the ground and pray.

If you want to experience it, you can imitate how others worship Buddha. Note that women can't paste gold leaves themselves, and they need boys to help them paste them.

A palace/cultural museum

Mandalay Palace is the palace of Kampong Cham, the last dynasty in Myanmar. Built in 1859, there are 104 temples, mainly wooden buildings. Regrettably, such a magnificent building was destroyed in World War II, and the Myanmar government rebuilt it on 1989.

In addition, the Thousand Monks Banquet outside Mandalay and Ubuntu Bridge is especially recommended.

Mahaganayan Monastery is one of the largest monasteries in Myanmar, with thousands of monks. The rule that monks follow is not to eat after noon. They only eat two meals a day, four in the morning and ten in the morning. Therefore, if you want to see the children's shoes that monks eat, you need to leave the hotel early.

Ren Qian and monk rice.

Every morning 10, monks line up for dinner in the temple restaurant. At this grand ceremony, the roads are also crowded with foreign tourists, and monks are used to our "long guns and short guns" and onlookers. It can be simply summarized as watching a thousand monks feed a thousand foreigners, which is quite interesting ~

Wuqiao sunset

Wuqiao, also known as Lover Bridge, has the most beautiful sunset viewing place in the world. At dusk, half the sky in Myanmar is dyed red by sunset glow, and the silhouette of Wubangqiao is set off by the lake. If couples come here to punch in, they can rent a boat to watch the sunset on the lake. The boatman will take you to the center of the lake that is best for watching the sunset.

PS: The scenic spots outside the city (Thousand Monks Rice and Five Bridges) are about 30 kilometers away from the city.

Bagan

To Bagan, the bus ride takes about 5-6 hours, and the fare is 70 RMB/person. If you want to be more comfortable, you can choose a chartered car.

Bagan is really a city of thousands of Buddhas, with more than 2,000 Buddhist temples alone. It is said that there were more than 40,000 pagodas in its heyday. However, due to man-made destruction and natural disasters, there are only 2000 pagodas.

When you visit Bagan, you can ride a bicycle and follow your feelings, and shuttle freely between pagodas. As long as you think which stupa is beautiful, you can stay for a while. If you are prepared, the best way to visit the stupa in the online celebrity scenic spot is to charter a car and take a carriage ~

At present, the pagodas in Myanmar are completely forbidden to climb, and only the observation deck can climb to the top of the pagodas. The best place to watch the sunset and sunrise belongs to the observation deck and the riverside boat to watch the sunset.

Of course, the most unique way is to watch it in a hot air balloon ~

When you are lucky enough to take off in a hot air balloon on a sunny day, watching the pagodas and people under your feet shrink slowly, the sun shines on the earth, and thousands of pagodas are covered with bagan. Those temples that have experienced vicissitudes are even more magnificent. I can really feel tears at first sight ~

PS: Hot air balloons are only open from June 5438+00 to April of the following year. Hot air balloons are prohibited from taking off in rainy season in other seasons. Because of the beautiful scenery, hot air balloons are very popular, so you need to book at least one month.

Yinlai Lake

Inlay Lake is the second largest lake in Myanmar, with an altitude of 970 meters. Surrounded by mountains on three sides, the lake is clear and the sun shines directly on the bottom of the lake. Most of the scenic spots are located in the lake area. You need to buy a pass of 10 to enter all the scenic spots. To enjoy these beautiful scenery, you need to rent a boat for a day trip to the lake ~

Yinsai Lake has a Ma Dai-style water villa, a cat-jumping temple and a green water park.

In addition, in order to make a living, the fishermen on the silver lake have also practiced a unique skill-paddling with one foot!

Holding the paddle pole in one hand and the fish cage in the other, standing on the bed and swinging with the current, it is natural and smooth, and sometimes it feels like falling into the lake at any time.

Yangon

The scenic spots in Yangon are mainly concentrated in the northern part of the city, where the famous Ruiguang Golden Pagoda, Jordachi Sleeping Buddha and Callaway Palace are all gathered.

Among them, the most famous Ruiguang Jinta is the target of many people punching in Yangon. It is called the three wonders of Southeast Asia together with Angkor Wat in Cambodia and Borobudur in Indonesia.

Whenever the sun sets, countless believers gather around the Shwedagon Pagoda, lighting the lights and the flames are constantly beating around. There seems to be a little * * between believers and Buddhists ~
