Symbol of Myanmar | Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, one of the three major ancient sites in Southeast Asia of Buddhism's Light.

Shwedagon Pagoda, also known as the Golden Pagoda, was first built in 585 BC and has undergone repairs and renovations over the years. The current height of the pagoda is 112 meters and the circumference of the base is 427 meters. It is the most sacred Buddhist pagoda in Myanmar, as it enshrines relics of four Buddhas. Along with Indonesia's Borobudur Temple and Cambodia's Angkor Wat, it is known as one of the "Three Great Monuments of Southeast Asia" and is a world-renowned symbol of Myanmar. The Shwedagon Pagoda is located on the Dinggudala Mountain in the Inya Lake area of Yangon. Built in the pre-Christian era, the Shwedagon Pagoda has a history of more than 2,500 years and is the oldest pagoda in Myanmar. According to legend, the Burmese merchants Ko Gada Putta brothers brought back eight strands of Buddha's hair from India and presented them to the Burmese king, who ordered the construction of the pagoda in this ancient fishing village to preserve the Buddha's hair. When it was first built, the pagoda was only about 20 meters high, but after more than 2,000 years of repairs and expansions, it has become what it is today. The main tower is over 100 meters high, surrounded by walls, with entrances on all four sides. The south gate is the main entrance, and there is now an elevator for tourists to visit. There are more than 70 marble steps that lead up to the main tower platform. There is a small stone tower at each corner of the platform, with the main tower in the middle. The main tower is covered in pure gold foil, with over 5,000 diamonds and more than 2,000 precious stones embedded in the top. A wind chime hangs from the top of the tower, and when the wind blows, it rings out a pleasant sound that spreads in all directions. There are also two large bells hanging in the pagoda courtyard. According to legend, ringing the bells three times can make your wishes come true. The Burmese people regard the Shwedagon Pagoda as a holy site of Buddhism and a source of national pride. The Shwedagon Pagoda, along with Indonesia's Borobudur Temple and Cambodia's Angkor Wat, is one of the famous wonders of the East. In April 2019, I traveled to Myanmar and had the privilege of visiting the Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon. Together with the locals, I devoutly prayed under the scorching noon sun, feeling the Buddha's light. It's an unforgettable experience till now!

A definite landmark and a must visit. Suggestion is to visit close to sunset to catch the pagoda reflect the changing light. Stay through till nightfall (the temple is open till late) to watch the effect of the golden pagoda as it bathes first in fading natural light, and next, in electric floodlight. Experience the rituals, sights and sounds of Buddhist Burma (Myanmar) here, as locals visit to worship. Watch solitary monks in meditation, young monks sitting in worship. #GiveThanks

This young capital city is now like an empty city; there is a golden tower, called Nebi The Grand Tower is a replica of the Yangon World Peace Pagoda in 2009. Since the white elephant is a beast of the Burmese, on the side of the Shwedagon Pagoda, several large white elephants were housed. Although the Yangon Peace Pagoda is relatively famous for a long time, the Nayotadu Golden Pagoda has won by scale, luxurious style, and both inside and outside are decorated with gold, which is the landmark building of Nay Pyi Taw. The Golden Pagoda stands on a mountain bag. In addition to the front stone steps, it can be upgraded. There are also air corridors that extend out, and the top is connected to the vertical elevator. The Jinta is surrounded by a wide platform, standing on the platform and overlooking the city. The jinta is hollow and people can enter the inner Buddha. Inside the Jinta, the Buddha is carved into a Buddhist scripture and a Buddhist story. There are giant pillars in the sky. The giant pillars are divided into Buddha statues on both sides. They can worship the Buddha statues according to the wishes of the people. Of course, they can also turn to the four Buddha statues. Top ceremony. There was no incense in the tower, and there was no place to pray for it. There were only a few carpets on the ground, and people sat on the carpet and watched the worship silently. When I arrived at the Shwedagon Pagoda, the storm just passed, and the reflection in the ground water gave her a better posture and unique beauty!

The whole tower is 112 meters high and is spread on 115 square meters. The most amazing thing is that the tower is covered with more than 1,000 pieces of pure gold foil. When the lantern was first set up, the whole building looked like a castle in a fairy tale. The treasure was flashing and solemn and luxurious. The night of the Shwedagon Pagoda is the most beautiful time of the day. Thousands of Buddhist believers pray here piously. The fragrance in the hands is stained with the light of the Yingyin fire candle. The smell of the agarwood is scattered all the time. The tired heart seems to find the destination.

After passing this gate, I went to another country: Myanmar, a country with a strong cultural atmosphere. Myanmar Temple in Myanmar, picking up the stairs and seeing a few nuns in the devout chanting, did not notice that there were tourists. Many temples in China are not allowed to take pictures. I asked what I could take before taking pictures. Looking at their focus, they even slowed down their steps, for fear that they would disturb their chanting.
