Pagoda festival in Tagoo (myanmar month) of the year.
Nice pagoda and interesting history but the maintenance isn't as good as schedagon pagoda.
It's a beautiful Stupa, but it does not have the swing of Shwedagon in Yangon. It's more tranquil, so those who want to worship should come here. It does get very hot in summer though, so try to avoid midday
The tallest pagoda is Myanmar, and you can probably get better photos of it than the Shwedagon because the crowds are much smaller. Still a nice sight to behold!
Peaceful mind under the big shadow tree
Not so bad toilet..
More better than before 5 years ago..
Although similar in size to Yangon's Shwedagon, I wasn't as taken by it - maybe it's reached pagoda duration point by then. 10,000 kyat pass will get you into other landmarks in Bago's Heritage Zone. A warning: try not to use the toilets - they are disgusting, all the more for the fact that you'll have nothing on your feet.
Huge pagoda in Bago. Must visit because it is one of the most important pagoda in Myanmar.
There ia the entrance fee for 10000 kyat when you travel in Bago
Breathtaking. The pagoda truly shows just how devoted Burmese people are to Buddhism.
Most well-know and famous pagoda and symbol of Bago.
A must-go place in yangon. Very beautiful pagoda. Best time to go after 5pm where you can view the sunset and night scene of the stupa. It's so beautiful at night! Many devotees do their meditation in this place. Remember, short and Bermudas are not allowed.
The Great Pagoda of Hansarwadi era. Situated in Pegu . Not far from Rangoon.
I love this place
The tallest Pagoda in Myanmar. Nice place to explore. If you want to park you car, it's 300 Kyats and it's right next to the Pagoda.
According to locals, this is the tallest pagoda in Myanmar and also houses different relics from Buddha.
Like Shwedagon in Yangon, the pagoda is surrounded with different smaller shrines and also faithful pilgrims. One difference is that it is not as crowded as Shwedagon, and it has several different religious items too, like a rock in the middle where the faithful planted their incense on.
Tallest pagoda in Burma is definitely worth seeing! It is impressive, huge and beautifull. You will meet literally just handful of Western tourists there (unseen in Southeast Asia!). If you take a local bus to get there, the trip is even more fun.
Remember, during sunny days it is really hot over there with little places to hide.
Impressive! The only sight that's worth it in Bago.
