... Wonderful view of one of Asia's top historical wonders... Myanmar's impressive Buddhist pilgrimage destination... this ancient town is a breathtaking testament to the region's rich history and cultural heritage... known for its vast landscape dotted with over 2,000 temples, pagodas, and stupas, Bagan offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the past... the temples and pagodas stretches out as far as the eye can see... with view of the Dhammayangyi Temple, the largest of all the temples in Bagan... it is one of Myanmar’s most famous tourist attractions... Thanks a lot Amelia! (✿ ♥‿♥)
Bagan is located in the Mandalay Region in the center of Myanmar. From the 9th to 13th centuries, the city was the capital of the Pagan Kingdom, the first kingdom that unified the regions that would later constitute modern Myanmar. During the kingdom`s height between the 11th and 13th centuries, over 10,000 Buddhist temples, pagodas and monasteries were constructed in the Bagan plains alone.
Bagan became a UNESCO WHS site in 2019.
