The Mandalay Palace is the palace of the last dynasty of Myanmar. It was built in 1859 and has 104 temples, mainly wooden buildings. It is a pity that such a magnificent building was destroyed during World War II and rebuilt by the Myanmar government in 1989.

White and gold are the main colors here in Kudu Tao Pagoda. The magnificent Shwedagon Pagoda occupies the middle part, flanked by 729 white pagodas forming a spectacular pagoda group.

Because their monks follow the rule of not eating after lunch and only eat two meals at 4 a.m. and 10 a.m. every day, children who want to see the monks eating need to leave the hotel early. Every day at ten o'clock in the morning, monks line up in a long line to enter the temple restaurant to eat. This grand ceremony is also crowded with foreign tourists on both sides of the road.

Min Gong Ancient City is the farthest out-of-city attraction from the city. There is an internet celebrity attraction in the city - Xinbimei Pagoda.
