Sagaing Hill

Reviewed By travelwithshreya - Phitsanulok, Thailand

We had a nice view of Sagaing Hill from U Min Thonze Caves. U Min Thonze Pagoda located at the top of Sagaing hill – “U Min” means cave and “Thonze” means 30. I liked spending time there at the top of the hill. You need at least an hour to experience this.

Kaunghmudaw Pagoda

Reviewed By WhiteMouseBurrow - Moscow, Russia

The pagoda itself makes a very pleasant impression both outside and inside. There are no tourists, some locals. Near the pagoda there is a small market where you can buy local perfumes - wooden blocks, or living owls ... I wonder why they sell owls?

A Myint Village

Reviewed By Gamecock95

A mini Bagan without all the tourists. Love love this place. Hard to get to but once there it’s all your. Just you and 800 year-old temples and stupas. Can’t imagine that this will stay off the tourist pipeline much longer but until then. One of my favs in all of all Myanmar.

Dha Kya Di Tar Convent

Reviewed By etlinnl

I visited very often with my clients and it is so nice to learn about the nuns and nunnery. If you are interested in about buddhism and nuns you should visit that place. We call Thakya Di Tar nunnery and i do recommend you highly.

Mingun Bell

It was the heaviest functioning non-cracked bell in the world at several times in history. It was casted in 1808 and finished in 1810. It s height is 12 feet.

Reviewed By travelwithshreya - Phitsanulok, Thailand

The 4-m high and 90-tons heavy Mingun bell is the largest working bell in the world, which was meant to be installed at the top of the giant pagoda. We slipped inside the huge Mingun Bell and it was so cool because of the thick metal.

Bodhi Tataung

Reviewed By TonyPKL - Kings Langley, United Kingdom

Together with many other bizarre and spectacular sites in Myanmar this is one to definitely stop and have look at. The shear size of this and the sitting Buddha currently nearing completion is a sight to behold. You really wonder, having just driven through villages subject to various levels of poverty how such grandiose structures can be so justified throughout the land.

The bridge itself is nothing special, but the view of Sagaing with its dozens of stupas from the bridge is spectacular.
