Impression of Bagan

Located on a bend in the Ayeyarwady River in the central dry zone of Myanmar, Bagan is a sacred landscape which features an exceptional array of Buddhist art and architecture, demonstrates centuries of the cultural tradition of Buddhist merit-making, and provides dramatic evidence of the Bagan civilisation (Bagan Period 11th – 13th centuries). Modern Bagan is a great tourist attraction, where you may see thousands of monuments – including stupas, temples and other structures for Buddhist spiritual practice, extensive archaeological resources, and many inscriptions, murals and sculptures. What is more, you may encounter lovely people selling delicate souvenirs that would satisfy your longing for Bagan memories.
