The Shwethalyaung, a colossal reclining statue of Buddha (181 feet [55 m] long), is to the west of the modern town and is reputedly one of the most lifelike of all the reclining Buddha figures; allegedly built in AD-994, it was lost when Bago (Pegu) was destroyed in 1757 but was rediscovered under a cover of jungle growth in 1881. Shwethalyaung Buddha is the second largest reclining Buddha.

AWWWW ELEPHANTS. All contributions assist the protection of these amazing animals. These are well looked after and it is great to see the babies being given bottles. The pushing and shoving to try to get another bottle is hilarious, Such characters these wonderful animals have.

Even though I don't believe that the python is super old but it is a gorgeous looking Burmese Python and the way it lives around people is unique.
