Distributing a travel plan to Burma, praying and making merit for 2 days and 1 night

Myanmar Trip 2 Days 1 Night First time traveling to Myanmar. This trip is a trip that my mother wants to do. She really wants to worship the Shwedagon Pagoda, so we organized this trip. Haha, we organized it to be chill and not tiring. We only went to a few places in Yangon. It is very convenient to travel here. There are many Grab and Taxis. We used Grab only for the whole trip. If you are a social media person, don't forget to install a VPN app. Otherwise, you won't be able to use the internet. And this is where we went. 1. Shwedagon Pagoda Shwedagon Pagoda is a large pagoda located in the heart of Yangon. It is very beautiful during the day, but it is even more beautiful at night. When entering the temple, you must dress properly. Do not wear shorts. Do not wear shoes. You must walk barefoot. Around the pagoda, there is a Buddha image for each day of the week. Each day, there is a statue as a symbol for pouring water. First, worship the Buddha. You can bring flowers to worship the Buddha and pray before pouring water on the marble Buddha image and the deities standing behind the marble Buddha. Then, pour water on the animal of your day of birth. We went at 4 pm to see its beauty before the sun sets. And after the sun sets, and most importantly, walking around the pagoda won't be hot. The evening comes, the more Burmese people there are. Some come to meditate, some come to worship, depending on their faith. My mother really liked it and was very impressed. She was physically tired but very happy. Admission fee: 10,000 Kyat Address: Yangon, Myanmar (Burma) Coordinates: https://goo.gl/maps/tAPLjYRWkW6TVrms7 2. Thep Than Jai or Nat Bo Bo Gyi Botahtaung Pagoda "Thep Than Jai" or as the Burmese know it as "Nat Bo Bo Gyi" is the deity who protects this Botahtaung Pagoda. There is a statue in a pavilion by the water on the side of the pagoda. He is also a famous deity who makes people's prayers come true. Opening and closing hours of Wat Luang Pho Than Jai Daily from 06.00 - 21.00 hrs. Entrance fee: 10,000 Kyat Address: Yangon, Myanmar (Burma) Coordinates: https://goo.gl/maps/kxw8erX8LpN92Qcb6 3. Rio Coffee & Brunch Cafe lovers must come to Rio Coffee & Brunch, one of the most Instagram-famous coffee shops in Yangon. The shop is beautifully decorated in a dark loft style. The most popular corner is the balcony of the shop, which is a beautiful view of the Sule Pagoda. There are both food and drinks. The shop has a good atmosphere, but it is a bit hard to find. It is not far from the Sule Pagoda. Walk up the stairs 3 floors. Open: 08.00 - 20.00 hrs. Address: Sule Pagoda Rd, Yangon, Myanmar (Burma) Coordinates: https://goo.gl/maps/fLNpUtYuAUapAaQD7 4. The Secretariat Yangon 🚩The Secretariat Building is the home and administration of the British Burmese. With Victorian architecture, mainly using red and yellow bricks, it is very prominent in the city. It is currently closed since the capital was moved to Naypyidaw and is in the process of being renovated into a museum or hotel. Coordinates: https://goo.gl/maps/qiHKBQmyppLp5CdWA 5. Esperado Lak View Hotel Esperado Lake View Hotel. The hotel is located next to Kandawgyi Lake. It has complete facilities. The bedroom is large, clean, has Wifi, buffet breakfast on the 9th floor, which has a beautiful view of the lake and Shwedagon Pagoda. The staff are lovely and willing to serve. But the room is not very soundproof. Opposite the hotel is a shopping mall, very convenient. Address: No.23 Kan Yeik Tha Rd, Yangon 11221, Myanmar (Burma) Coordinates: https://goo.gl/maps/6onqwPhUtrnbAwCv7 6.rangoon tea house golden valley Rangoon Tea House is a famous restaurant and bar in Yangon. There are many fusion foods from different countries. Good price. The taste of food and drinks is very good. The shop is big with lots of seats. There are 2 floors. The atmosphere is good. I must say that the dim sum is very delicious. If you want to eat, you have to go before noon or it will be sold out. The staff is also cute and provides good service. If anyone comes to Yangon, I recommend it. We stopped here for lunch before going to the airport to prepare to return. Open: 07.00 - 22.00 hrs. Address: No. 36, Inya Myaing, Street Shwe Taung Kyar St, 11201, Myanmar (Burma) Coordinates: https://goo.gl/maps/b5SDnfxaQqed1hU8A
