Yangon - Myanmar
One of the best places to visit in Asia is Yangon, Myanmar’s largest city. Nature lovers will appreciate the city’s stunning lakes, shady parks and verdant tropical trees. Dubbed ‘The Garden City of the East’ with good reason.
Sightseeing:
Kandawgyi Lake Also known as Royal Lake, this artificial lake, built by the British as a reservoir, is most attractive at sunset, when the glittering Shwedagon Pagoda is reflected in its calm waters.
Chaukhtatgyi Paya Housed in a large metal-roofed shed, this beautiful 65m-long reclining Buddha is bigger than the better known image in Bago.
DON’T MISS:
Shwedagon Paya
