No matter what other people say, Inlay will forever be one of my favorites. The wildlife, Fishermen, those stilt houses, those mountains and blue water and lastly the friendly nature of Inlay Locals make it a must visit place. Love to visit this place every time I go to my grandparents house. A must visit place in Myanmar.

A great cave with carving and Buddha images and historical places

I love the place , go up in evening to view the city under rain cloud . So much silent up there

Very impressive cave with many many statues. You wont expect it when you're on the outside. There is a lot of water coming from the rocks above you, so the floor can be a bit slippery. there are also a few impressive golden pagodas on the outside. If you are in kalaw its really worth a visit! Its not far from the center.

The Buddha statue is made up of "Hnee" (a kind of bamboo shred) and painted with gold paint. It's a tradition of Shan ethnic to do this kind of Buddha statue. All visitors and pilgrims are offered free traditional tea with pickled tea leaves salad.

Coolest Monastery I've been to in Myanmar! We really enjoyed wondering around the giant temple on the rocks and the views from the top are incredible. It is massive and loads of steps to climb but so worth it!

This is my first visit Mount Popa. Very Attractive place and worshipped load Buddha by my family members. Fully covered steel roof and side Grils to protect from Sun as well as from monkeys. Hundreds of monkeys circulating nearby and picked the valuable items which we carrying. Even Mobile phones, Hand cartages spectacular are carrying quickly. We should highly alerts about monkeys. But Upper part of Mount Popa No monkeys and nothing to worry about worshipping and photo shooting. Very Attractive high mounted seneries can view . Don't miss this place while tour in Mandalay and Bagan. The local people are very kind Innocent and polite.

For me it is a good place for overlooking the valley the view are really amazing.There are alot pagoda and so many historical stories

The only one building where we can climb in Bagan, 2020. Building design are amazing. View are beautiful.

Narasīhapatae(or)Tayokepyay temple(593/295-A) *************************************************** The Narasīhapatae (or) Tayokepyay temple is an ancient two storied temple which is located near the famous PhayaThonezu(Three pagodas), Sambūla pagoda and LayMyetNha pagoda from the MinnNanThu village, Eastern Bagan archeological site. The Narasīhapatae temple(593/295-A) is also the biggest religious edifice within the MinnNanThu group. Narasīhapatae(or)Tayokepyay was a name of a King from Bagan dynasty. Many scholars recognize this temple as a merit of King Narasīhapatae(AD 1256-1287) from Bagan dynasty. The name Tayokepyay, which means flee from Chinese, was given after he fled from the Mongol invasion in AD 1285. At that time, Burmese were recognizing the Mongols as Chinese though they were totally different. Beside the name of 'Tayokepyay', there is also a name of 'Tayokepyan'. Although the name 'Tayokepyay' is not exactly it’s name, many chroniclers identified the temple with this name according to the ink inscriptions from the inner wall of the temple. Base on the historical accounts and chronicles, many scholars assume this temple, was built circa early 13th Century AD. So we can say that the Tayokepyay temple is nearly 800 years old now. The interesting decorative arts of Bagan period which still can be found in this temple are_ -the masonry arts from the exterior wall such as angles, lions, MaKāra(lengendary animal), ogre heads, ogre heads clutching garlands, floral arabesques, etc. The remnants of beautiful stucco arts, especially from the front entrance’s arch, showing the elevated handiworks of stucco artists from Bagan period -beautiful glazed plaques around the temple -mural arts illustrated on the inner walls of the temple which remaining a lots. These glittering paintings are now become fading and only the green color can be seen distinctly. A numerous of mural paintings with ink glosses such as Buddha birth-stories, Buddha displaying gestures of Enlightenment or Teaching, twenty eight Buddhas of the past who sit below their respective trees, iconographic topics such as SamံBuddhay(thousands of Buddhas) from the ceilings and other ornamental motifs. Beside, it’s very rare to see such a trove of mural paintings from Bagan period among the big temples in Bagan. -the remnants of stucco arts, such as angels in the mood of worshipping to the Buddha, at the backdrop of the Buddha images. Unfortunately the earthquake that occurred in 2016 caused a lot of damages to this Tayokepyay pagoda. The Sikhara, a square tower with a curved profile, had fallen and some satellite stupas from the temple had also damaged. However that Sikhara was rebuilt 25 years ago, so now the temple can be seen close enough to the old temple dating back to 25 years before.

If you are lucky enough to get the chance, try to come here for the amazing sunset view of the Bagan temples. From the flat roof of this Pagoda you have a 360 degree panorama of hundreds of temples in the surrounding countryside. This is one of the most amazing sights you will see anywhere!

What a beautiful place, a full of hearitage, culture of Myanmar. I liked it very much. Spent here around 20-25 mins and then I gone for the local shops in here only. Lot of things you can buy which are made up off Bamboo with lacquer coating. Really awesome.

One can see rare terracotta plaques of Buddha stories. Located near Phwar Asaw village, quiet and the architecture is truly impressive. Shouldn’t miss temple to visit in Bagan.

Sulamani Temple is a quite beautiful temple, with well-preserved remnants of original paintings on its walls. The details of the artwork add a special charm, making it an interesting place to explore. It’s definitely worth a visit if you’re in Bagan.

Shop that sells local handicrafts produced by woman to provide them opportunities. I only traveled with a backpack, so was looking for something small as souvenir, but they do have a variety of items, most under US$10... great program with great products!!!

So exciting to visit there, for it has a lot of myths of ghosts or other dimension creatures. But, we found no sign of them. One tip is don't take off your foot wears until inside the temple since there are loads of spikes around the compound. Don't be afraid of overheard myths or social media posts. There is no one except a shopkeeper and a homeless person sleeping.

About Pagoda About the same time Makuta, captive king of the Thaton Kington (his name is now corrupted into 'Manuha'), must have built his colossal images at Myinpagan, where he was living in captivity, a mile S. of Pagan. "Stricken with remorse", says the Glass Palace Chronicle, "he built a colossal Buddha with legs crossed, and a dying Buddha as it were making pariniruâna; and he prayed saying 'Whithersoever I migrate in samsâra, may I never be conquered by another!' The temple is called Manuha to this day.

An 11th Century temple with no Buddha statue inside, the locals were very friendly and we're telling us stories about the place.. There's only a Brahma carving on the wall inside and no statue of Buddha.
