Interesting things to do, Activities in Bagan

June 2, 2017 By Good Life Myanmar Travel

Bagan is an ancient city located in the Mandalay region in Myanmar. From the 9th to 13th centuries, the city was the capital of the Bagan Kingdom. Between the 11th and 13th centuries, over 10,000 Buddhist temples, pagodas, and monasteries were constructed in the plains alone. Unfortunately, over 2,200 temples and pagodas still remain to the present day that are the biggest attraction points for tourists from all around the world.
