Top Experiences
Yangon, Myanmar
Shwedagon Pagoda
This magnificent 2,500-year-old, 326ft-tall gilded stupa dominates Yangon's skyline. It’s Myanmar’s most sacred site, a stunning complex of pavilions and shrines with a dome that features in excess of 6,500 diamonds and other precious stones.
Bagan Temples
No fewer than 10,000 Buddhist temples were constructed in Bagan – once capital of the Pagan Kingdom – when the city was at its height between the 11th and 13th centuries. Over 2,000 have survived to the present day, creating a truly inspirational panorama.
Buddhist Novitiation ceremony
This sacred tradition is an important milestone in the journey to monkhood. The young boys (novices), dressed in glittering robes to imitate princes, are led in a celebratory coming-of-age procession, accompanied by an orchestra and dancers.
