 🇲🇲 Bago (Myanmar; Burma/Myanmar) is a Buddhist theme park where everything is “big and bright”. A constellation of the largest statues: the largest Buddha, the tallest, the longest, the straightest... appears among trees and meadows, in inhospitable terrain or under appropriately arranged canopies. All of them are strange images, as if new, painted in bright colors and a little... a little kitschy.
Bago is located 80 km northeast of Yangon, and is the capital of Pegu County.
The city of Bago was once the main seaport and capital of Lower Myanmar. But the city was destroyed, and only at the beginning of the 19th century it was partially restored. Although after that, the city was repeatedly destroyed by earthquakes, so it was very difficult to return the former grandeur and beauty of these places. But still, the city is open to tourists, and pleases with the variety of its attractions. The main attractions of Bago can be easily seen in one day.
For an independent excursion to Bago, use the main transport of Bago - cycle rickshaws, or rent a bicycle.
The main attractions of Bago are, first of all, the most beautiful pagodas: Shwemawdaw, Hintha Gon, Chiayokrun, Mahazedi.
