Kyaiktiyo Pagoda

Reviewed By WhiteMouseBurrow - Moscow, Russia

A unique shrine - you must visit here! BUT, be prepared: 1. The only transport is a cargo vehicle adapted for the transport of pilgrims. 2. A huge number of pilgrims. 3. Women are not allowed directly to the stone. 4. Constant strong wind at the top. 5. Remember that you will have to enter the territory of the shrine without shoes! 6. I advise you not to forget to buy a piece of gold leaf to add it to the stone!

Another site to show respect for the fallen. Many Australians and 3 New Zealanders remembered here. So many, so young fought for the freedoms.

Santawshin Pagoda

Reviewed By Nomadsat

The views within and from the pagoda are spectacular. Why would you not put a pagoda in this perfect location? A great place to see the evening in - particularly if the sunset is wonderful!!

Kyaikkhami Yae Le Pagoda

Reviewed By Nomadsat

Very popular spot to feed massive fish. Great pagoda with many features. This is a pagoda where some of the areas are able to be visited by men only. This pagoda is on the edge of the sea in a spectacular setting.

Kyaikthanlan Pagoda

This is the Pagoda described by Kipling in the Road to Mandalay (By the old Mawlymayne Pagoda....). It is the biggest tourist attraction in Mawlymayne and the favourite sunset viewpoint. Another pagoda is listed and people are inaccurateley posting reviews of this pagoda to that one. It is a large Bhuddist pagoda with viewing area.
