- Chaukhtatgyi Buddha Temple - The magnificent Reclining Buddha at Chauk Htat Gyi is next on our program: Chauk Htat Gyi Pagoda is one of the leading pagodas in Yangon and home of a 66-metre long Reclining Buddha. The temple’s central location makes it one of the leading Buddhist centres in the former capital.
- Bogyoke Aung San Market - After a photo stop at the Karaweik Hall on Kandawgyi Lake, we will proceed to the Bogyoke Market, or better known as Scott’s Market (closed on Mondays and public holidays). Undoubtedly offering the largest selection of handicrafts in Myanmar, the market is a great place to discover a bargain and have fun haggling with local traders.
- Botahtaung Pagoda - After lunch, head to see some of the other main important, religious buildings in the former capital, such as the Kaba Aye Pagoda, the oldest Chinese temple in Yangon and the stunningly beautiful Botataung Pagoda, located on the riverside.
- Shwedagon Pagoda - En route to our final visit of the day, various stops will be made, before one of the world’s most spectacular monuments, the sacred Shwedagon Pagoda, is visited. Towering almost 98 meters above the Yangon cityscape, it is one of the wonders of the religious world. It is believed to have been built more than 2500 years ago and is a testament to the faith of the Burmese.
After this full-day through Yangon, your guide and driver will transfer you back to your hotel at around 5 pm.
