Shwedagon Pagoda is a must-visit in one's lifetime

❤Reason for recommendation: Yangon, formerly known as the capital of Myanmar, was called Dagon (also known as Dagon) in the 11th century, and is famous for the Shwedagon Pagoda. 🌟Highlight features: Shwedagon Pagoda is the national symbol of Myanmar, built in 585 BC, shaped like an inverted giant bell, constructed with bricks. After several renovations, the pagoda is now covered with over a thousand pure gold plates, with more than 7 tons of gold used. It is known as one of the treasures of Eastern art, along with Indonesia's Borobudur and Cambodia's Angkor Wat. ❤Reason for recommendation: For those who love this place, even a day is not enough, especially when seeing the ascetics in 40-degree heat, the kind of soul-stirring power that makes one pause and reflect. 'The ascetic practices self-suffering to cultivate blessings for all sentient beings.'
