Soon U Ponya Shin Paya

Soon U Ponya pagoda will be the most important in Sagaing. It is at the top of the hill. Umin Thonzu is just below. You can walk to it from the hill skirts. It is, however, strenuous. We instead hired a car. It took us 15 minutes to get here from the skirts. The main hall is beautiful. It has a large Buddha with a tunic covered with gold. The walls are covered with dazzling turquoise crystals. There are many details. Pay attention to the nagas in the columns, the frogs, etc. Outside, the views of the hill, the valley, and the river are remarkable. The pagoda looks shiny and beautiful from the outside. It is also tall. The place is very clean. There is no entrance fee. #couplestrip#naturalwonders#thingstodo#familytravel
