Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, Myanmar. Unfortunately, one of the last trips before the pandemic hit was to Myanmar, India, Malaysia and Thailand. In this piece just a short pictorial report from Yangon, Myanmar, formerly Burma. Shwedagon Pagoda (Shwetigoum Padoga) needs no particular introduction, words are superfluous in this case.

Unfortunately, one of the last trips before the pandemic hit was to Myanmar, India, Malaysia and Thailand. In this piece, just a short pictorial report from Yangon, Myanmar, formerly Burma. Shwedagon Pagoda (Shwetigoum Padoga) needs no particular introduction, words are superfluous in this case. I spent an unforgettable afternoon visiting the "Golden Pagoda".
Myanmar in general is a beautiful country that is definitely worth a visit (despite the fact that there is a civil war going on in some parts of the country right now). While there is quite a bit of modern construction going on in Yangon, the city has still retained its original character. And the people here are tolerant and very nice.
Short video - Shwedagon Pagoda, perhaps the oldest Buddhist pagoda ever. A magical place with an unforgettable atmosphere:
And without further comments, just a selection of photos from our visit to the Golden Pagoda: just take off your clothes, put your shoes in your backpack and go.

And going home, thank you...
