Founded in 573 AD, Bago is an ancient town just 80km form Yangon, which
makes it a popular day's round trip from Yangon. It also is home to
numerous Pagodas, among which is the famous statue of the reclining
Buddha that is 55m long, and covered with mystical inscriptions and
symbols that reflect the secrets only to those few who have acquired
and accumulated an understanding of the same. Sightseeing also includes
cheroot-making and wood-carving centers. |
