Shining of Gold Pagoda, Shwedagon Pagoda in Myanmar

#temples Shwedagon Pagoda is located at the centre of Yangon City, Myanmar. As Shwe means "gold" in Burmese. I am not sure whether you can use a public transport or not to get here, but I recommend you to use online taxi instead called Grab and easy to access there. Also, you will need to use proper and polite way of dressing as this is kind of sacred place that you must obey the religion values. You will need to pay for the entrance fee as a tourist. In my case, there was a guy approaching me to guide me along my visit. He will inform you as much as he can about the history of this temples. At the end, you will be asked for a tips for him. If you don't mind, you can just continue, but if you feel you are bothered, you should probably ignore and reject him that you don't need his guidance. Anyway, he will also help for what you need for example take picture of you, so it is a win-win. There will be a lot of people coming to pray. And I suggest you to come here during evening time because the area is quite burning during the afternoon. The Pagoda is built of Gold from many countries around the world. That thing is so interesting because many countries involved of this created Pagoda. 📍 Shwedagon Pagoda, Yangon, Myanmar #100waysoftravel #myanmar #yangon #pagoda
