Additional Information

Bago, Twante, and Thanlyn cities are the neighborhood of Yangon where we can make a day trip. After 30-minute drive, we’ll arrive at Myanmar National Races Villages and walk around to learn how traditional houses are built. We can see Bago River’s view from the watch tower and to the Thanlyn city. The city first came to prominence in the 15th century as the major port. Around 1993, with the help of China engineers, Thanlyin Bridge was built and Thanlyin was finally connected to Yangon by road. Attraction places to see in Thanlyn are Central Market, Kyaik Khauk Zedi, 17th Century old Portuguese Church, Ye Le Pagoda (the pagoda and the shrine hall in the middle of Yangon River and it is unbelievably never flooded to the pagoda platform) and where big fishes are coming from in the middle of nowhere to pray at the pagoda during the Buddhist Lent. Lunch is served at Pwint Restaurant with traditional Burmese foods. End of the day go back to your hotel.
