Indeed, four thousand sacred stupas across the plains of Bagan (Pagan) are an awe-inspiring sight, as is the mixture of British Colonial architecture alongside old wooden monasteries ornamented with intricate spiritual carvings, and Shwedagon Pagoda, perhaps the world's richest golden stupa.
Sagaing, the spiritual capital of Myanmar (once known as Burma), boasts hundreds of temples, pagodas, nunneries, monasteries and meditation caves with spectacular views of the Irrawaddy River and Mandalay. Visit Myanmar, (officially known as the Republic of the Union of Myanmar) to experience a range of festivals; there is at least one for every month of the year and most are celebrated nationwide. During your travel adventure with us you will get to see that beyond the exotic sights and festivals are the gentle, proud and devout Burmese people who truly make the Myanmar travel experience an experience of a lifetime.
