Be careful with the women very pushy to sell flowers at the entrance and the false but very friendly guide imposing himself, showing some rituals, and asking for much too much money at the end. Say NO to everything. Just pay the official entrance fee.

I loved this pagoda at night. It is serene. Quite. Peaceful and the glow is amazing without the lines of tourists.

Amazing! Must visit and it’s free to roam around the circle at night so no 10,000KYT fee to walk around. We got a picture from the south side. See how beautiful it looks

Beware of Sule Pagoda because it is not as safe as you may think it is. Security is not as robust as Shwedagon so you have gangs of cheats hanging around inside. Usually one of them dresses as a monk and the other will say he is a trainee monk. The elder fella will bring you around to do some rituals with the corners for days, and once the entire thing is done they have the cheek to ask for up to US$30 per person for a "blessing" . Played along with them and went straight to temple staff to complain. Almost immediately the younger trainee monk cheat comes back and brings me to his older buddy, who then gives me back all the money. At that point of time I was unsure if the donation goes to training monks so I gave them some money, but after meeting a low ranking temple staff member I found that this was not the case. The lady even told me that security was in cahoots with these cheats so they couldn't really do anything about it. Was advised by this staff member to make a report to the hotel or tourist police, which is what I did. Really ludicrous for the pagoda's upper management to not be aware of this problem at all. If you see anyone who tries to give you an orientation to Burmese culture this way, just tell them to get lost.

Nice place itself but be careful about locals directly speaking to you and try to explain you the place saying it is for free. At the end a "monk" is coming who says you MUST spend some money telling you at least 10'000 Kyat. Sad enough that a monk is doing that.

Been to a 1000 of these in SEAsia. This one - saw it, did it. Nothing spectacular and very little of observing the devotion of the faithful. Little monk kid chastised me that I was stingy on donation when I paid the same as others - a first and very strange. Recomend only due to its central location in the city or if you've never seen a pagoda.

Dominates the centre of Yangon especially at night. Actually better to view from afar as opposed to up close. If you do enter and pay as a foreigner just be mindful of the closing times, the girl on reception was more than happy to let me pay and enter without telling me it was due to close in another 10 minutes.

Excellent temple with astonishing view. It is free entry for the locals but foreigner has to pay 3,000 kyat. Please take note have to take out your shoes and socks to enter the temple. I experienced a bad experience with their local staff shouting for it. It's not pleased to witness that.

Super impressive Pagoda. Quite large in size and extremely ornate. Foreigners have to pay 3000 ks each as an entry fee which is not very much considering how stunning this Pagoda is.

Sule Pagoda. This is just down the road from where I stayed, the Shangri-la. It's a great introduction to pagodas before you step into the large ones like Shwedagon. Observe the customs, take off your slippers or shoes before you enter. If you wear socks, it's going to get quite dirty. I recommend bringing wet tissue along to wipe your bare feet before putting your footwear on again. Being a tourist, you're required to pay for an entrance fee. Just pay, and don't fuss over the cost.

Near our hotel (Zia) and our downtown walking tour plans - lunch in Rangoon Tea House, Sule Pagoda, Bogyoke Aung San Market and Pha Yar Lan station.
There is an entrance fee of 3000 kyats.
We brought plastic bag for our slippers as advised by everyone on the internet.

Definitely worth a visit for its grandeur and location in the heart of downtown Yangon. There is an admission fee of 4,000 kyats (3 USD) during my visit. As in all pagodas in the city, visitors are asked to dress modestly and remove their footwear before entering. Bring a bag for your footwear instead of depositing them at one of the four entrances so you can exit anytime without going back to your starting point.

Sule Pagoda is located in the citycenter of Myanmars Capital Yangon. Due to a legend the sites where it was built where home to a powerful nat (spirit) named 'Sularata' that gave the pagoda its name. The Pagoda as well as its surroundings is beautiful. Entrance fee 3000 MMK (for foreigner) plus 1000 MMK for shoe locker. Be aware of the so called 'guide scam': people try to give you information without any arrangement - they will claim the right to charge you some money after.

Entry is 3000 kyat, you can borrow appropriate clothing of you don't have one. The place is not that big but still worth to see of you are in the area.

Some will offer to give you a tour for a fee of course. I felt I was robbed but not at knife or gun point. I went in paid for the entrance fee which was 3K MMK, then Steven (one of the locals who approached me) offered to give me a tour on how the teaching goes, how to pray and what are the practices. I still gave some money since he took the time. He even took me to money blessing which I had to shell out money again. Then I thought it was the end but apparently there's shoe storage fee (1K MMK). Which I could have just carried my own shoes but they insisted to have it stored. I know it's not much but i was blindsided with the fees.

The pagoda was beautiful.

Foreigners need to pay for admission charges, similar to most of the places in Yangon. Pagoda is not big but an important one, it is even older than the Shwedagon Pagoda.

You have pay a fee as a foreigner to step in, and another fee for "guarding" your shoes. That's not fair Pagoda is nice

It's worth a visit if you stay close by, it's a peaceful and beautiful place. However, you should choose to first visit Shwegadon Pagoda if you only have limited time (which is breathtaking). Anyway, go there before sunset to enjoy the special ambiance!

This pagoda is at an important and busy intersection in the city. There is a fee to get in for foreigners. One can see the Burmese buddhist rituals and chanting in the morning and throughout the day.
