Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Mandalay Hill, Mandalay Myanmar
The pagoda and its ancillary pavilion are located near the top of Mandalay Hill, the holy hill from which the Buddha reportedly predicted that a great religious city would emerge at its base. It is suggested that the pagoda was originally built by the great builder of Bagan, King Anawratha, in 1052.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Maha Myat Muni Pagoda- Mahamuni Buddha Temple, Mandalay Myanmar
Most highly revered Buddha image of Burma
The Mahamuni Pagoda or Mahamuni Buddha temple is one of the most important Buddhist pilgrimage sites in Burma.
The temple houses the Mahamuni Buddha image, the most highly revered Buddha image in the country. The pagoda was built in 1785 by King Bodawpaya of the Konbaung dynasty after the Mahamuni image was captured during the invasion of the Arakan Kingdom.
Several shops around the temple sell offerings for the Mahamuni Buddha image such as incense sticks, candles and flowers.
The Mahamuni museum on the temple grounds tells about the history of Buddhism. The museum displays information about the various places in the life of the Buddha, from His birth place in Nepal, the site where He reached enlightenment and the site of His passing into final Nirvana. There are also maps that explain about the spread of Buddhism across Asia during the last 25 centuries.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: U Bein Bridge, Amarapura Myanmar
U Bein Bridge is believed to be the longest and oldest teak wood bridge in the world. As we’ve already mentioned, it stretches out for 1.2 kilometers which is a pretty impressive feet seeing as it was built over 150 years ago. To be precise, its location is actually in the old ancient capital of Amarapura, which is just on the outskirts of Mandalay. The bridge itself plays a big part in the everyday life of locals with hundreds crossing over by either foot or bicycle to get to work or the local markets. Since becoming a popular tourist attraction, many now make their livelihood from the bridge by offering boat rides, selling food and water or by showing off their impressive knowledge of its history.
