Ten must-see attractions in Myanmar

The top ten attractions that Myanmar must visit are as follows:

1, Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, located in the center of Yangon, the capital of Myanmar, tourists are usually shocked by its splendor. Shwedagon Pagoda is the highest place in Yangon, and it can be seen anywhere in downtown Yangon. It is the most sacred stupa in Myanmar. Quite different from the business atmosphere outside Yangon, the interior of the Shwedagon Pagoda is extremely quiet and solemn, which is very suitable for those who want to find a quiet place in a crowded city. Don't forget to bring sunglasses, because the golden stupa and white marble can "shine" on any worshipper.

2. Inlay Lake, the second largest lake in Myanmar, is a water town, attracting tourists from all walks of life. The Yingda people who live here usually use four high piles to build houses in shallow waters near lakes or islands, forming a water village surrounded by vegetable gardens. Locals go out by boat instead of walking. Fishermen have learned the hard skill of rowing on one foot, which is a unique traditional rowing method.

Remember to go to the restaurant and jump into the cat temple. Monks here trained a group of cats. They can jump two feet off the ground. The best time to visit is during the Dragon Boat Festival from September to 10. The Dragon Boat Festival is one of the Buddhist religious festivals, featuring golden barges and one-legged boats.

3. Bagan, Bagan is an ancient historical city in Myanmar with the lofty beauty of the ancient kingdom. There are many pagodas and Buddhist temples built in various historical periods, which are about the size of Manhattan Island in the United States. You must go to Bagan Plain to go to Myanmar. To get perfect angle, there is nothing better than enjoying this ancient country in a hot air balloon at sunrise.

4. Napari Beach, Napari Beach is the most popular beach resort in Myanmar and an excellent place for tourists to relax. Napari beach is picturesque: tall coconut trees are dotted with miles of silver beaches, and the charming blue-green water extends to the huts along the coastline. Leisure activities such as diving, cycling, canoeing and golf are very popular, but when the sun slowly sets below the horizon, many people also choose to watch local fishermen quietly anchor their boats and show off their daily fishing activities.

5. Ubuntu Bridge, locals, fishermen, monks and nuns walk on Ubuntu Bridge (there is a temple school on Ubuntu Bridge). Ubuntu Bridge is the longest teak bridge in the world. This 1.5km long teak bridge is the most spectacular at sunrise or sunset, which is worth capturing by photographers. It is one of the most photogenic scenic spots in Myanmar. In order to get the best angle, you can rent a boat and have a panoramic view of the whole bridge. You haven't really been to Myanmar until you witnessed the daily life of the Burmese people on this charming Ubuntu bridge.

6. Ruins of Rakhine State. Rakhine State used to be an ancient civilization that ruled this land, but unlike other historic sites, the life of Rakhine people continues. The collection of 700 pagodas and temples is very rich, which embodies the daily life of rice farmers and herders.

According to legend, there used to be more than 6,000 temples in Rakhine State, but the bad weather conditions and the declining dynasty made this once Rakhine State a ruin. Looking at the hundreds of stone Buddha statues hidden in the secret room, it seems to have crossed the corridor of history, linking the grandeur of the past with the simplicity and simplicity of today.

7. Wesang Beach, starting from Yangon, you can reach Wesang Beach in five hours by car. Wei Sen Beach is the embodiment of a hidden paradise. When many people prefer to sunbathe in Napari Beach, tourists who want to seek peace outside the Buddhist temple can come to Weisan Beach, which is a silver beach. The dense tropical forests in the mountains of Rakhine State surround this secluded beach, which can take you further to experience the feeling of paradise.

8. Jin Yanshi Pagoda, a boulder in defying gravity, not only has golden luster. The uniqueness of this rock is that it looks unstable and almost falls off the cliff, but it can stand on the top of Dajingshi Mountain. According to legend, this is because it perches on a strand of Buddha's hair.

For many Buddhist believers, this miracle is worth a pilgrimage. It is the third largest Buddhist shrine in Myanmar, and the best viewing time is before the sun sets completely in the evening. Many people believe that the magic and mystery of Jin Yanshi is also one of the incentives for tourists to believe in Buddhism.

9. Bindia Grottoes and Bindia Grottoes contain more than 8,000 Buddha statues in different periods, with more tourists than all other caves in Myanmar combined. These Buddha statues almost cover the cave walls, and many tourists will be surprised by their number. Walking in this sacred maze full of golden statues, please slow down and speak in a low voice, because monks are still praying and meditating in these caves.

10, Irrawaddy River Irrawaddy River is the source of inspiration for many literary masters such as Rudyard Kipling and George Orwell, and it is also one of the most important rivers in Asia. When you come to the Irrawaddy River, you can drive a cruise ship through a small fishing village, listen to the morning bell from a nearby monastery, watch elephants and buffaloes get wood in the forest, experience the daily life of residents on both sides of the strait, bargain with vendors in the local market, and enjoy the rare dolphins in the Irrawaddy River.
