Pagoda
Place of worship
Mahamuni Pagoda, located in southern Mandalay near the airport, is a revered temple complex and an important Buddhist pilgrimage site in Myanmar. The main hall houses a giant 3.8m Buddha statue adorned with gold and precious stones, which only men can approach to cast gold on the statue. The pagoda also contains two much-venerated images, including the Mahamuni Image brought from Rakthine State in 1784.
Wonderful place in Mandalay where rich in culture and you can visit the museum in a separated building. Feel so calm and happy to be here during new year time.

This is a major pilgrimage site, located southwest of Mandalay, Myanmar. The Mahamuni Image, originally came from Arakan is enshrined in this temple and is highly venerated. According to legend, Buddha himself visited the Dhanyawadi city of Arakan in 554 BC. King Sanda Thuriya requested that an image be cast of him. Once complete, the Buddha breathed upon it, and thereafter the image took on his exact likeness.
Beautiful place but very badly damaged during the recent earthquake. Reconstruction however is in full swing, but large parts of the temple complex are currently not accessible. Also the fish pond got a big hit during the EQ, and all the fish have died. Very friendly staff who are happy to explain things to you. Despite the damage still very impression, don't forget to look up once in a while as the ceilings have the most beautiful elements of the whole temple.
The Pagoda is clean and exquisite. You can pray and donate. You can also feed to fish and tortoises at garden in this pagoda area. Be aware that one cannot wear shorts or skirts, dresses to visit. Bring a longyi for ladies or long pant. I didn't see any panhandlers near pagoda area at this time and people are no longer bothered for this.
This is an amazing temple to be in. There is a K5000 entrance fee for foreigners. This temple has got so much gold in it's interior and exterior that it looks so magnificent. Here, you get to witness devout worshippers apply gold leaf on the buddha statue. There's a video live stream as well as women are not allowed near it. There's also a bronze statue museum on-site with English explanations and an art gallery which details the faith in Myanmar. Would definitely recommend a visit here.
My first stop in Mandalay was here at Maher Myat Muni Pagoda. As always you must leave your shoes, etc. and walk barefoot. You walk past many merchants selling goods before getting to the pagoda. Here you must pay camera fees, but they don't apply to mobile phone cameras. Here only males can enter the central area with the big Buddha statue. I was ask by a local woman to present an offering on here behalf which is common.
Wow, what an interesting place. Unfortunately, you can't actually see the gold leaf Buddha, but they do have pictures of it at various years going back to 1935 so you can see the transition as it gets more and more gold leaves on it. The surrounding building is pretty impressive too. It seems to be a very holy place for people so please be respectful here.
In the compound of pagoda, the landscaping is very nice and relax place. The flowers are also so beautiful.

Monastery

Sacred & Religious Sites
Shweinbin Monastery, located in Mandalay, Myanmar, is a serene and secluded retreat known for its exquisite wooden architecture and intricate carvings. Built in the late 19th century by wealthy Chinese jade merchants, the central building stands on tree-trunk poles and features detailed engravings on balustrades and roof cornices. The monastery's rich history adds to its allure as one of the city's most beautiful tourist attractions.
Very Peaceful place, No Entrance fee is Good 👍 better take a plastic bag to put your shoes because shoes are not allow to wear in the Monastery, surrounding have no restaurant or shop, better let your Taxi wait for you.

This Temple don't have to pay entrance fee. Is quite big and is free to move around. They don't even collect that 200mmk toilet fee. You enjoy the quiet atmosphere there. Local go to the big Mediation Hall to get peace of mind. The temple can only see from outside.
Is much better then visiting Shrenandaw Temple which have to pay 15,000 to enter and 500 for toilet. See nothing special. Same type of wood curving as the Shweinbin Temple.
Built in 1895 by a pair of wealthy Chinese jade merchants, this carved teak monastery is well beloved by tourists and locals. The central building stands on tree-trunk poles and the interior has a soaring dark majesty. There were beautiful intricate detail carvings on the walls, doors and even on the roof all over the architecture.
An ornately carved temple that must have been spectacular in its heyday but now in need of restoration. Its surrounded by the old dwellings of the resident monks, but its eerily quiet.Note the sign to remove "slippers" (shoes), but then you walk around on the ground barefoot - unusual vs only entering a prayer hall.On the one side, the wooden gates at the top of the staircases are open and you can go to the first level and enter the prayer hall upstairs.
Beautiful monastery, the woodwork is exquisite. Very calm and peaceful place. Thankfully there was not many people there, so it didn't disturb the serenity of the monastery.
Impressive and aesthetically pleasing structure. Very relaxing, we were there at 3pm on a Monday and were absolutely alone.
But please, send somebody with a hammer to re-nail all those planks, nails are protruding a bit of everywhere and it isn't pleasant as you have to walk bare feet there...
Quiet but beautiful, not just the wooden building but also the path around it. Small but really nice atmosphere.
There are three wooden monasteries in mandalay, shwenandaw,bagaya and shweinbin monastery,all the three monasteries are wooden temples and very similar to each other.This is my personnel view and my opinion only.If you visit either one of the monastery,there would be no need to visit the other two monastery,the best of the three would be Shwenandaw monastery which is quite close to the palace and within the city centre

King Galon Gold Leaf Workshop
4.1
(324)
Manufacturer
When visiting Mandalay, a trip to the King Galon Gold Leaf Workshop is a must for anyone interested in traditional craftsmanship and local culture. This workshop showcases the intricate process of creating gold leaf, from beating and cutting to packing. The pure gold leaves produced here are used in various ways, such as adorning Buddha statues and crafting lacquerware.
When you travel through Myanmar and visit pagodas you will have come across gold leaf vendors.
This workshop produced them.
Staff explains the extremely laborious and time-consuming process of turning gold strips into super-thin gold leaves and of manufacturing bamboo paper.
The leaflet for 1,000 MKK describes both processes and it comes with a gold leaf.
René S — Google review
Traditional gold workshop, where you can examine how gold plates are being flattened to be used for decoration or offerings later on. You can see the craftmen working with hammers, and the staff is exceptionally kind and helpful, speaking fluent English. They will tell you about the work process and the possible uses of the golden leafs - of course you can buy many different jewelry, decoration or simply gold.
Quite an interesting place where you can see the gold leaf making. From the process of making bamboo sheets to making gold leaf and then preparing stacks, all of it can be seen here. You can shop some souvenirs as well.
Interesting place to learn about the gold leaf making process. The staff are friendly and one of them put gold leaf on our forehead while we were visiting the workshop. I guess it means good luck!
Very interesting place to visit and staff were both informative and helpful. Bought a small piece of jewellery as a memory of Mandalay.
Very interesting place in central Mandalay. This workshop specialize in handmade traditional golden leaf production, which are used in covering different things especially Budda figures in stupas and monasteries (in the traditional way by Myanmar's people).
However You can find other souvenirs covered in gold. The nice place to see if You come by this district (there are other similar workshop in this area).
A fascinating look at an age old technique for making gold leaf. It will blow your mind when you see the effort required to produce one tiny sheet of gold leaf and then you think of the sheer volume of gold leaf needed for just one pagoda or huge Buddha statue.
You will see how difficult to make the gold leaves, it is physically intensive.

Diamond Plaza

Shopping mall
Diamond Plaza is a spacious shopping complex that offers a variety of experiences for visitors. It houses numerous apparel retailers, a well-stocked basement-level supermarket, and a movie theater for entertainment. The mall is known for its gem and amber shops, offering better prices and quality compared to other locations in Yangon. Visitors can find valuable gems such as Ruby and Sapphire from Mogok, as well as Hpakant Jade, with the opportunity for bargaining to secure great deals.
Good place for shopping, the supermarket is good and it has everything you need. Good selection on food.
Carlos — Google review
The mall is nearly deserted, save for the supermarket at the basement that is well stocked. The rest of it seems like 2 or 3 shops that are open, but are not lit, while everything else is shuttered. We were surprised that one lift was working to take us to the 2nd floor where there were washrooms.
Ocean supermarket sells everything from spices to daily necessities, liqour as well as furniture. Things seem reasonably priced. It was still open as at 7pm.
The only great shops are at the basement level with Ocean Super Market.
Fantastic place for gem hunters with lots of shops and booths. For amber lovers it is like heaven as Amber Beauty sells the best amber in Myanmar at very nice prices considering the extremely high quality usually unseen elsewhere.
Place is run down after just a few years of being open. There is a nice grocery store in the basement (ocean) and a modern movie theater on the top floor.Other than those 2 places, the mall isn't worth a visit
In a city where shopping is not exciting, Diamond Plaza tries to impress locals by trying to emulate Western style shopping malls. What it manages to do most is to copy the pricing practiced in those malls. Rents must be high because items are pricier than elsewhere in Myanmar and many shops are closed. When I visited, an important demographic that could afford the mall's shops was missing, namely foreign tourists.
Nice little ground floor with some fake diamond jewellery shops, but the floors above 1st floor are mostly empty. You don't miss anything if you don't come.
Down in basement is big Ocean supermarket where has just about any daily thing you may need.
A shopping complex with Ocean supercenter, banks, restaurants and more.

Flea & Street Markets
Zay Cho, also known as Zegyo Market, is a historic marketplace spanning 12 acres in Mandalay. The market offers a wide variety of goods including local foods, clothing, electronics, traditional silk longyi, velvet slippers, silverware, lacquerware and jewelry. The name 'Zay Cho' translates to 'cheap rice' in Bamar and reflects the bargain items available at the market.
A bustling local market where you can find everything—from fresh produce and spices to traditional Burmese longyis (sarongs) and handicrafts. Great for souvenir shopping, but be prepared to bargain! Try the street food stalls for authentic Mandalay snacks like mont lone yay baw (sticky rice balls).
Nay O — Google review
Come here in the morning and you can try the various sweets that are sold just outside of the market.
The brown sweets made of string beans and toddy palm sugar were not too sweet and had a consistency similar to honeycomb.
The market itself felt much more relevant for local customers than Scotts Market in Yangon.
A real immersion in a huge local market: inside a bazar where you you can find everything (from China).
Outside on the plaza, a food market with street food.
During 3 h, I have seen only local people.
Nov 2019
If you want an authentic local market experience then definitely visit this place. It can be very intense as there are many people there especially on the weekends. The roads are pretty narrow and usually should only be a one way street but somehow they get trucks up and down the street both ways. But even if you're not that interested in buying anything it's well worth just walking through and making your way through an interesting maze of paths.
Iteresting market, goods ranging from clothes, textiles, fruit, vegetables to hardwear equipment. The market is really busy so try not to get runed over by a bike.
Overall an interesting place to go to in mandalay
This is the best place to shop in Myanmar for fabric. This is a local market not necessarily for tourists items. If you're looking for Burmese longyi's I recommend getting them here. The prices were better than in Bagan and Yangon. Most shop keepers I met did not speak English. I used Google translate and a calculator to communicate and negotiate prices. There is an upstairs sectors with people who can mend and sew to finish the longyi's. Bring cash as debit and credit cards won't be accepted.
Amazing market in Mandalay.
You can try many local food & street food.
Big market selling everything from food to laptop's and everything anyone could need. Good prices and lots of choice.

Unique Mandalay Tea Room, which has been a popular spot for tea and coffee enthusiasts since its opening two years ago, offers an extensive selection of beverages as well as traditional Burmese dishes like mont pyar ta latt pancakes and mae kyaw nang gyi thoke. The restaurant is known for its quick service and vegetarian-friendly options. Visitors can enjoy a variety of authentic Burmese teas at affordable prices while indulging in dishes such as Mee Shay and Mont Ti.
An absolute delight of a place when it comes to food! We reached at about 7:30 am and the entire restaurant was bustling with people. Quick turn around time and serving great food is definitely their strength. I loved the fact that they catered to my vegetarian meal requirements and I thoroughly enjoyed Mee Shay and Mont Ti along with Burmese tea and Nan Pyar. Reasonable pricing but maybe expensive from local point of view.

Good service, menus are delicious. One of Luxury tea shop at Mandalay. Please notice - you need to check the bill, sometime cashier do mistake that is she input the unordered items in the voucher.
Everything is great. It is high end tea shop in one place.
Restaurant is crowed all the times.
U can request the taste for light or strong.
There are charging plugs at the corner tables.
Staffs are helpful.
The best local place to eat in Mandalay!
Try all the noodles version and the milk tea (various bitterness and rich milky taste). Most of tapas is delicious and must try!
Affordable and fair price. Super!!!
Lovely cafe with local beverages, snacks, and other foods. They have an English menu as well. Prices are higher than the average cafe, but the place is well-appointed with indoor and some outdoor seating. The place is often busy and frequented by local families. Service is quick and welcoming.
This restaurant is excellent. We ordered a lot as we wanted to taste a lot of the local/regional flavours, and we were not disappointed - unique and delicious! Such great variety. The manager even gave us a sample taste of the teas on sale before we decided to buy a few packs. Highly recommended.
AMAZING TEA! They have a blend for all types of tea drinkers, from bitter to sweet and milky to none at all. Very authentic Burmese cuisine at very affordable prices (Their noodles cost only 2 USD). The fish broth noodles (with the egg in the picture) was a little too strong for my taste but my friends loved it. The chicken curry was really good. Overall a good experience mostly due to their tea
This was my first breakfast in Myanmar and it was the best breakfast I ever had. They offer a wide variety of Traditional Burmese food and the price is reasonable. Service was great and staffs were friendly. Be sure to try the Mohinga and Samosa. Also, their specialty tea is one of the best! Highly recommended!

Koffee Korner is a trendy restaurant in Mandalay that offers a unique dining experience. By day, it appears to be a normal eatery, but at night, the ambiance transforms with blue-hued lights and an aquarium inside. The restaurant serves European cuisine along with excellent coffee and desserts. The quiet and charming surroundings are complemented by green trees. It offers basic ice cream flavors and fun beverages, while the waitstaff is knowledgeable and provides great service.
Nice western style place with outdoor and indoor seating. Loved their pizza, chicken chop, their juices and coffee. Their asian selection of fried rice also not too bad. Their aircond is superb and wifi better than average. Waiters can speak pretty decent english and service speed was quite all right. Drinks okay but food was priced a bit high. Comfortable environment and music was not bad.

Chill atmosphere with basic ice cream flavours that remind you of your childhood. Mango Yogurt smoothie is okay, could have been nicely sweeter to my liking. Fun beverages menu. Our waitress is very knowledgable and serves very well which is quite rare in restaurants in Mandalay. Good hygiene.
Lastly, it makes me happy that the fish tank is well maintained and taken good care of. Tells you about how they treat the business.
We loved going there because they had Kirin beer. The setting is nice to relax but the service can sometimes be slow. The dishes are OK but sometimes too pricey for their quality.
A relaxing atmosphere, easy music, chilled aircon and eager-to-please staff. Iced cappuccino freshly brewed and the tuna sandwich nice, but needed some chilly sauce, served separately. A wide range of drinks and food menu (salads,soups,pastas, chicken, pizzas, meats). Armchair seating so not like a restaurant. Outdoor seating too. Prices to suite the upmarket standard
As far as Mandalay prices go for coffee shops, Koffee Korner runs decently priced drinks and it has a large selection of hot and cold beverages. I didn’t get to try the food, but the seats are comfortable and the Wi-Fi is decent. Add to those the choice of indoor air conditioned seating or outdoor tables under the trees, and you have a really good spot for relaxing and talking with friends. Location is easy to get to from the central Palace and the decor is old-world, if not a little bit dated. I also like how there are electrical outlets available at many tables; something you don’t see in other, stingier places. However, I give it only 2 stars because they charge tax AND service charges separately on the bill, but they don’t inform the customer in the menus. Sorry, but f**k you, Koffee Korner! This is a nationwide scam among stingy and devious restaurants.
Service is excellent, as always in Myanmar. Restaurant decor is tasteful. Inside is airy and cool. Chilled out low music makes the place very relaxing. I ate the spicy fried rice and vegetables (with madatory fried egg) - delicious. The banana smoothie is outstanding. I finished with a cappuccino, which was pretty good (not outstanding but I would order again).
good place n standard food.My favourite one !
Decent food with strong aircon, although a little bit pricey when compared with others in town. (ard 8000-9000 kyat for a main course).

Mogok Daw Shan Noodle is a charming street food spot that captures the essence of local dining in Myanmar. With an English menu adorned with enticing pictures, it’s easy for travelers to navigate their vegetarian options. The highlight here is undoubtedly the Shan noodles, a delightful dish hailing from the Shan State, which I had the pleasure of trying for the first time. The bustling kitchen buzzes with friendly staff who are eager to serve delicious meals at incredibly affordable prices.
Good street corner restaurant in Mandalay. It’s very cheap and the food is tasty. It’s an open air restaurant with mostly local people there. We had a tea leaves salad, a crispy pork noodle soup and a plate of dumplings. Everything was very good and tasty. You should definitely check it out !
Lucas M — Google review
Big kitchen with many friendly people. We tried the noodle soup (which i got with egg instead of meat) for 1500 Kyat and naan bread with beans (400 Kyat). Veggie curry with naan bread (3000 Kyat), dumplings (4000 Kyat) and fresh pineapple juice (1000 Kyat). The dumplings (freshly made by four people) and the curry you can easily share, since the portions are big. Everything was delicious. Tourists get the menu with English/Chinese translation and food pictures. Highly recommended!
Friendly staff but poor quality food and super slow service. We waited for 30 mins to get our drinks, and another 15mins to get all dishes.
The pork in crispy pork with noodle was all fat. And mixed vegetables was in super small portion. (2500 kyat)
Awesome place and great food! Very friendly staff. English menu with pictures. Need to wait 30min for dumplings - but absolutely worth it!
We haad Naan bread (sweet with sugar and butter) fried potatos and dumplings for almost 8'000kyat
A busy little joint with an English menu and accompanying pictures! I had the chicken Shan noodle with soup. It was delicious! I also ordered the Naan with chickpeas (on the menu it is Naan with peas). This was also quite tasty. We had a young boy serve us - he knew very little English but managed to communicate quite well. Super cheap and quick. Highly recommend!
Truly local place with great food at honest prices. Staff are very friendly. Menu is in English. Open 10am to 9pm
Good local restaurant. They have English menu. I ordered sticky rice noodle soup with pork. It tasted alright, though it was too salty(as Burmese food usually is). I had pineapple juice for drink. Super sweet.
Service was ok. Little English spoken.
Chai! Egg dosa again! Noodle soup! This local joint made us believe Once again in daring to reach out to locals and try something new! Clean, hygienic, in the local market, safe to walk around and explore.

Most of desserts taste are Nice and simple
English menu provided. Home made ice cream available. Had the milkshake. If you're craving ice cream early in the morning... No problems.. As they open at 7am. Just be aware that the pin on Google Maps is currently a bit off if you check TripAdvisor they have good advice as to where the shop actually is I've suggested and edit for the Google pin and just waiting for that to be fixed will update when it is.
A good place to have nice ice cream or different types of shakes. This place is always packed with people.
You can trust the Quality and food safety here.
The best ice cream shop in the whole city. Excellent flavors and quality, Affordable price. The service is good. You can put orders for Birthday parties,weddings, picnics and anything. I really recommend eating here.
The atmosphere is crowded if you go on a busy day which I tend to not like. The ice cream is really good but I think it’s a but too sweet for an ice cream.
Very affordably priced ice cream with a good range of options!
Super delicious and affordable ice cream shop! Kind staff, quick service, and this banana split was only 2,500 kyat!

Nestled in the heart of downtown Mandalay, Bistro@82nd Restaurant has quickly become a favorite among expats and locals alike. This charming bistro, managed by a dedicated Swiss owner, offers an inviting atmosphere reminiscent of a cozy tavern. The menu primarily features delectable European cuisine that consistently impresses diners. Guests rave about dishes like roasted cauliflower, vibrant salads, comforting carrot ginger soup, and hearty vegetable lasagna—all praised for their exceptional flavors.
Blew away our expectations. The food was insanely good. We had the roasted cauliflower, colorful salad, carrot ginger soup, and vegetable lasagna and all we're fantastic! Beers and wine are unbelievable prices and the dessert was also wonderful. Normally when we travel we only eat local good, but every now and then it's ok to that yourself with whatever you want ;)

Bad rum raisin ice cream
Bad burger
Bad ravioli with shrimp
Bad blueberry triffle
Ok Spaghetti tomato sauce
Good steak
Good salmon
Good sea bass
Good lasagna
Nice comfortable ambience without the usual bistro smell but points deducted from trying to look contemporary with unpolished, untiled cement floor.
The clock on the wall stopped at 11.40 and nothing done to resume. This shows that the staff is not bothered about image at all.
Beef steak is pricey considered it is not a fine dining restaurant and trying to rival that of a hotel. Tested a pork cordon bleu with cheddar, blue cheese and French fries. I was expecting a pork chop when it arrived looking like a wrap. It was nice but still pricey considered the small portion. Will visit again to try the beef steak another time.
By FAR the best western food in town. Ok, prices are high (15k kyat for main dish) but i can only imagine what it takes to deliver such quality in Mandalay. Really great, high quality food and not just one of these "european restaurants". I highly recommend.
Great coffee, decoration was fabulous, cozy place and nice staff but didn't have much veg options.
Food is ok, and service is good. At the time we went, around lunch time, there were no other customers so service was very fast. Im not sure how is the service when the establishment is full. The toilets are also very clean
Untypical stylish restaurant with very good (western-style) food. Prices and Quality are higher than other restaurants in the area.
Honestly a very nice place to get Western food. Sure it is expensive compared to local prices elsewhere but the food tasted great and was a great place to satisfy our European needs for one night. Remember the 15% taxes. Starterd for the both of us, main courses, fresh juices and a alcoholic beverage ended up on 46$

This collection of slabs is known as the 'World's Largest Book,' showcasing the entirety of the Buddhist canon.
Kuthodaw Pagoda is a truly magical place with its dazzling white structures creating a serene and enchanting atmosphere. Known as the “world’s largest book,” it features 729 marble slabs inscribed with Buddhist scriptures, each housed in its own small pavilion. The layout is both impressive and unique, making it a remarkable site to explore. I

This is a Buddhist stupa, located in Mandalay, Burma, that contains the world's largest book. It lies at the foot of Mandalay Hill and was built during the reign of King Mindon in 1857. The "book" consists of 729 marble slabs, each inscribed with a page of the Tripitaka, the complete Pali Canon of Theravada Buddhism. Each slab is housed in its own small shrine.
The largest stone book in the world is located in Kuthodaw Paya ("Pagoda of Great Merit"). It consists of 729 stone steles with Buddhist canons, that form the complete text of the Tripitaka. Each stella is located in a separate pavilion. Continuous reading will take approximately 450 days.
2,500 monks gathered in Mandalay in 1871 for the Fifth Buddhist Council, where they spent 5 months examining, collating and writing down the sacred texts of the Tripitaka. They decided to immortalize these sacred texts in stone, as a souvenir for posterity, and began construction, which lasted for 8 years. The craftsmen carved only 10 lines a day.
In 1900 the text from the stone steles was printed on paper resulting in 38 volumes of 400 pages each.

Amazing historical landmark 👍
Its name translated literally means Royal Merit. It contains 729 tone-inscription caves, each containing a marble slab inscribed on both sides with a page of text from the entire book in Buddhist text.
You will find a magnificent tree with the compounds. Truly amazing!
Just remember that it's a space of prayer so you are required to dress modestly and remove your shoes.
Ladies, no shorts or mini skirts! ⚠️
Very neat set of small white buildings, each with a stone "page" of the largest book in the world inside. You have to walk from building to building to read it. The buildings themselves are very cool to look at even if you can't read Myanmar because there are so many of them.
Beautiful pagoda with an interesting history. The Buddhist scriptures in each of its many stupas were once etched with gold and gemstones, but the British looted this all when they came through. It is still a beautiful place. Some rows of stupas are better maintained than others. The marble floor tiles help keep one's feet cool while the sun blazes, as do some leafy trees.
Women who enter can borrow a longyi for free at the entrance. There is no entrance fee for tourists.
Kuthotaw Pagoda is an amazing place. King Mindon had built the pagoda as part of the traditional foundations of the new royal city, Mandalay in 1857. He convened and lead the Fifth Buddhist Synod in 1871. The king wanted to leave a great work of merit by having the Tipitaka set in stone for posterity. The construction began in 1860 and the inscriptions were opened to the public on 4th May 1868. They were arranged in neat rows within three enclosures, 42 in the first, 168 in the middle and 519 in the third. One more stands at the southeast corner of the first enclosure making it 730, and this stone records how it all came into being. Thirty four brick rest houses (Zayats) stood all around except on the east side of the pagoda.

Nestled in the southeast of Myanmar, Sandamuni Pagoda is a captivating destination that draws visitors to Mandalay. This stunning Buddhist stupa, built in 1874 by King Mindon Min, features a magnificent gilded zedi and an impressive array of slender whitewashed stupas. It honors Crown Prince Kanaung and showcases the largest iron Buddha statue in Myanmar, known as Sandamani.
After visiting so many pagoda I am starting get enough of it , but this one still worth to see .
Huan Y — Google review
Sandamuni Pagoda in Mandalay is a really peaceful and beautiful place. The golden pagoda in the center is surrounded by so many white stupas, which look amazing. Each stupa holds a marble slab with Buddhist texts, similar to Kuthodaw Pagoda nearby. The whole place feels calm and quiet, perfect for taking photos or just sitting and enjoying the atmosphere.
Beautiful site with countless pagodas. It’s free to walk in but you can also leave a donation if you wish to. I would recommend visiting early in the morning or late afternoon before sunset to avoid the heat.
Toilets are available outside the complex, a short 2 minute on the right hand side of the main gate. There are also plenty of food stalls at the exit.
There is enough place to park a car outside.
Beautiful pagoda located near the northeast corner of the Golden Palace at Mandalay. It is known for its multitude of white stupas that give it a very unique look. It was built in the late 19th century as a memorial to a young prince who was assasinated during a rebellion.
A sea of whitewashed stupas sets Sandamuni Pagoda apart from the thousand other pagodas that you will likely visit in Mandalay. If you take your time to observe the architecture, you will be rewarded with intricate details, linear perspectives and geometric patterns. A favorite place for marriage pictures, the brightly colored clothes of brides-to-be will contrast with the stark whiteness of the pagodas. Monks in saffron robes compete for your attention. During the visit, I did not mind being barefoot because I felt like I was floating on a magic carpet.
It is a beautiful pagoda which is covered with thousands of pagodas ! Actually the main golden pagoda is surrounded with 1700 of white little little pagados and it is a beautifull sight !! You will also get a areal view of this pagodas from mandalay hill !! And it is must visit
This is actually a better sightseeing experience than Mandalay Hill due to the fact it sees far less visitors. Not much shade around the large central stupa, so go earlier in the day to beat the heat.
This is similar to the nearby Kuthodaw pagoda because of the large number of whitewashed ancillary stupas, also each containing a tablet of scriptures - 1774 in total! Each slab measuring 1.68 meters tall and 1.07 meters wide! Wow. The pagoda houses the largest iron Buddha image in Burma, named the Sandamani image, cast in 1802 from of almost 41,000 pounds of iron, it is now covered with a layer of gold.
Its difficult to get a true perspective of the number and e extent of these buildings. Aerial photos or Google Maps view helps.

Kyauktawgyi Pagoda, located near Mandalay Hill, was finished in 1878 and houses a remarkable marble Buddha statue carved from a single block of marble sourced from the nearby Sagyin mines. The image's creation was completed in 1865, with the king participating in the dedication ceremony.
It's a very old and beautiful pagoda near the mandalay Royal Palace and foot of mandalay hill. Has lots of small and big shrines.The architecture is very beautiful. Also has a big temple festival
Joy B — Google review
Kyauktawgyi Pagoda in Mandalay is a peaceful and less crowded temple worth a quick visit. The highlight is a massive marble Buddha statue, which is beautifully carved and impressive in size. The atmosphere is calm, making it a nice place to take a break from the busier sites in the city. It’s not the most famous pagoda in Mandalay, but if you’re nearby, it’s worth stopping by.
In a country with a million pagodas to visit, you need to look for distinguishing marks to differentiate between them. I remember Kyauktawgyi Pagoda because it had a big Buddha statue made of white marble. The statue's nails are also painted with gold leaf. The second mark is a dark blue and ornate gong in place of the classical bell. Looking at my pictures, I also remember very long and beautiful corridors connecting various parts of the temple.
It is a nice place for photographers, children, couples, and who want to relax with natural
One of the beautiful place in Mandalay .One of the historic place in myanmar.Have many glittering building and peaceful place. There are small shop which you buy things for offer to pagoda and memorial stuff like clothes
OMG Rakhine Traditional Fresh Seafood, delicious and healthy atmosphere.
This pagoda is world recorded of the biggest books.

Lookouts
Mandalay Hill, a significant Buddhist pilgrimage site in Myanmar, is located to the northeast of the Mandalay Royal. It is surrounded by nine satellite hills with names like The Golden Hill and The Silver Hill. Standing at 230 meters above sea level, it offers panoramic views of the city and is a popular spot for watching sunrise or sunset over the plains. The hill features numerous pagodas and monasteries, making it a niche and divine destination in Southeast Asia.
Mandalay Hill offers a fantastic experience with breathtaking views, especially at sunset. You can go up by taxi or walk, which takes around 25-30 minutes. It’s worth arriving at least half an hour before sunset to enjoy the scenery and spend some time meditating in the hilltop sanctuary. The walking route passes through several shrines, so wearing shoes that are easy to take on and off is a good idea.
The path is not isolated but does pass some vendors and typical pagoda-style stalls. Once at the top, the panoramic views are stunning, and the sunset is truly magical. It’s worth waiting for the full experience before heading back. After sunset, it’s safer and more convenient to take a taxi down, as the area is not very secure in the dark. Alternatively, start your descent just before sunset while there’s still enough light. Mandalay Hill is a must-visit, but plan your timing carefully for the best experience.

A panoramic view overlooking the Mandalay city
Very scenic
I recently visited Mandalay Hill, a famous viewpoint offering breathtaking panoramic views of the city. Known for its religious significance and scenic beauty, it’s a must-visit for those exploring Mandalay.
Mandalay Hill is an awe-inspiring site that offers a profound spiritual and panoramic experience. The ascent up the 1,729 steps is rewarded with breathtaking views of Mandalay, the Ayeyarwady River, and the surrounding landscapes. Sunset at Mandalay Hill is particularly enchanting, with the sun casting a warm glow on the golden stupas. It's a place of tranquility, reflection, and stunning vistas, making it a must-visit attraction for travelers exploring Mandalay and seeking a deeper connection with Myanmar's heritage.
As a foreigner, this has to be one of the most breathtaking places I've ever been to. I don't think I've ever seen anything more interesting than the Mandalay hill.♥️♥️
From memory, as we were told at the entrance, it is about 1700 steps to the top but this made the climb all the more worthwhile! The view is spectacular right across Mandalay. The cost of entry was tiny although they could have been a little more transparent about it. There are benches at intervals for those that need a rest on the way up and drinks vendors selling water and other drinks. There are other interesting temples to see in the vicinity of Mandalay Hill after you've walked back down. If you want to learn about the country you're visiting, you have to make the effort! We recommend it.
We were lucky enough to arrive in the city and to be transported right away in this amazing temple. The sunset light was the best thing and all the colours of the walls and decorations irradiated brightness and sparkles. The monks were super nice, they came talking to us (to practice their English as we later discovered), they were curious and kind. Amazing experience :-)
Very nice place to climb. It takes from 40 minutes to 1 hour approximately depends on you. There are many pagodas on the way and local markets where you can stop. The hike should be done barefoot so be prepared to end with your feet very dirty. The views from the top are very amazing and the atmosphere very good. If you are very tired to return by walk, you can take a local transportation that takes you to the bottom of the hill, the price is 1000 kyats per person.

Perched atop Mandalay Hill, Su Taung Pyae Pagoda is a stunning ancient structure that offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding town and beyond. This five-tiered pagoda, believed to house a strand of the Buddha's hair, dates back to the 18th century and features an impressive gilded stupa at its peak. The journey to reach it involves a leisurely hike up a staircase marked by the iconic double-lion gate near Kuthodaw Pagoda.
This is a beautiful Pagoda that is situated in a strategic spot on top of Mandalay Hill. If you want to take advantage of the views on the city and the surrounding areas, choose to go early in the morning to avoid the haze that comes after the weather warms up during the day. The building features intricate designs that use mirrors of many colors.

We went up to the peek to see the sunset. Since we arrived already at 3pm we were able to enjoy the view by ourselves before the place got crowded. Its nice to walk up there, which takes about half an hour. If you can’t walk that many stairs, you can go by car or take a taxi.
One of the nicest Pagoda we visited. Here is also a very famous sunset point, which is nice but if I had to choose I would prefer the Ubein point.
Several monks were here to have a chat with tourist, which is always very instructive and interesting.
Plenty of temple cats and a great view of Mandalay make this a favourite spot for sunset shots.
Walking up the stairs from the bottom can be a bit exhausting especially if you take the steeper Western staircase.
But there is also a lift nearby the car park if you happen to drive up.
Highest place in the city. Good place for sunset (but honestly not spectacular). Very quiet these days as not much tourist come visit.
I rented a bycicle to to get up here, it was heavy ride but the view is amazing enough to feel that it was worth it!
I like to see from high ground what around me is.
If you arrive to the top you can take a long stairs up or an elevator if you are too tired. See around Mandalay and the Naga statues.
You can't miss it if you stay in Mandalay. Very beautiful sunset with a peacful environment, you can sit down at the floor or stand at the side to enjoy the moment. But, you gonna prepare that you need to take the escalator uphill without shoes and have to borrow their slipper for the toilet, you have to pay 200kyat for toilet fee.
A compact hilltop pagoda with glittering mirrored columns. Fortunately, restoration and maintenance in progress! Lovely views of the city and surrounds from the top level. Several curio and snack shops around. There's an elevator but we didn't use it.

Food quality is acceptable (7/10) with reasonable price (8/10).
Staffs are very pleasant and quick (10/10).
View of restaurant is beautiful, you can see Golden Palace.
The price is not listed on the menu, the restaurant needs to add this for the convenience of customers (btw, price is reasonable - 46,000 kyats for 3 people with 5-6 dishes and 3 sunkist glasses).
while we STRICTLY asked to not add chicken giblets in our noodles because of our religion and believes they ADDED THEM ANYWAY. we even offered to pay extra for it but one if the workers said it was ok... we'll our family night's ruined and we're stuck w cup noodles w rice🧍🧍damm yall
One of the best roasted duck in Mandalay.
Service is A.
Foods taste pretty good.
Nice and clean.
You will also enjoy the pretty views of the Forbidden King Palace while eating by the glass window seats.
Tasty food for good price. We have ordered small (small means half duck)portion of duck for two people with a cabbage and rice and it was absolutely enough for two people get full. Everything we' ve ordered was tasty. The restaurant looks very luxurious, service looks the same but prices are very friendly for everyrhing you get.
Fair service, not bad food, nice environment.
I sat at the table upstairs.
Had dinner with famous singers.
Roast duck is my favorite.
Mandalay night is very beautiful.
Fabulous!!!
A must to come in Mandalay.
Try the duck, the clear soup with pork balls and veg, the pork with black bean sauce, pumkpin with stuffed meats inside. Dont forget to ask them to out the pumpkin in the meats also. The price is reasonable and the food come in a large portion with great service.
Recommend another brance outter town will be less busy.

Nestled in the heart of Mandalay, Ko's Kitchen is a culinary gem that transports diners straight to Thailand with its authentic flavors and traditional dishes. This charming establishment boasts an old-school design that exudes a sense of nostalgia while providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere for both tourists and locals alike. With roots tracing back to when Thai cuisine was still emerging in the region, Ko's Kitchen has perfected its craft over the years, offering dishes that taste remarkably similar to those found in Thailand itself.
Excellent Thai food restaurant. The foods taste exactly same with those in Thailand. The staff were very friendly and active.

Great Thai food. Restaurant isn't so new but food is fresh-)) and delicious. 95% of original Thai food. Thank you
One of the authentic Thai restaurants in Mandalay. Yummy, fast service.
For me average thai food for higher price... Nothing special for price 6000-8000Kyats per portion...
Hit and miss for the dishes. Have definitely tasted better Thai fare in any part of Thailand. Was hoping for a comparable taste and did not meet my expectations -- seeing that I came here from a blog review of top Mandalay restaurants. Having said that, the restaurant is a cosy comfortable one.
Went here for lunch today expecting great things. I have eaten incredible Thai food before, both in Thailand and the West, and I have to say this disappointed me. I was expecting more from the reviews. Aside from the taste, I ordered a prawn hot pot, and that's exactly what I got. A singular prawn in a bowl of soup! I complained and they told me I could have two prawns if I wanted. Seriously?!...What a joke. I also got the fried Catfish with ginger and chilli, which tasted ok, but it had no spice at all and there was more bone than fish. I also ordered the fish cakes to start, and I only ate one and left the rest. Would definitely not go here again. Overpriced and below average in my opinion.
We had dinner here and were with one other couple the only guests. Prices vary roughly between 4200 and 7300 for a meal, plus 1000 kyat for rice while the food quality didn't impress us. The pre-cut chicken pieces had lots of yearns (hard, similar to bones, but a bit softer) in it, so that it was necessary to chew carefully and spit parts out again. Taste was okay, but not great.
It is very good Thai food restaurent, located in a corner of 80 Rd & 19 St in Mandalay City.
Western side of moat of Mandalay.
Travellers are often come there by group.
It is a popular restaurent for tourists.

Nestled near the moat, Cafe City is a charming spot that captures the essence of an American diner with its vibrant neon signs and nostalgic decor featuring miniature cars and model planes. The inviting leather booth seating sets the stage for a delightful dining experience. While it offers classic Western comfort food like steak, pizza, and burgers, you’ll also find unique dishes such as honey-grilled prawns and coconut-flavored fish kebabs alongside Japanese options.
The steak from this place was superb, highly recommended. Pizza was delicious. Soup was decent. The customer service is good. Price is a little bit high but it is reasonable compared to the restaurants in Yangon.

A nice place to dating. But the price range is expensive. But compare with other European restaurant the price is reasonable.
We had family & friends dinner here for our engagement party. Food taste was on point, quality was amazing. Service was good. Some items could be a bit overpriced. But I was happy to pay for the foods I got. Nice environment to chill. The big fan outdoor was a bit annoying. The prices are not in the menu and had to ask the price for each item which made me quite uncomfortable. I would come back again. And hope they will indicate the prices in the menu in the future.
A cafe with palace view and great food. The quality of preparation and presentation is great for all the dishes. The seating is good and service is nice. This has limited vegetarian options but that is true with most of the Myanmar eating places.
Enjoyed lunch there with beautiful decoration. Lots of pasta, burger, pizza and other dishes are also available. I loved their fruit salad most, fresh and serving was also big.
Added: This Cafe City has been one of our must-go restaurants in Mandalay now. Visited again in last two-day trip (both day) for the lunch.
They have a large selection of European food and many different type of dessert. The average meal costs around 15-30 thousand. I definitely recommend this restaurant at night.
So classy.
Great taste.
And so many variety of wine.
I know you will be satisfied with their services.
Taste delicious and alot of menu available.they changed menu books from previous version which similar likes A4 paper.Dessert are good too and pudding brulee i want to suggest test at once.
