Sule Pagoda

When travelling the Mahabandoola Road to Sule Pagoda Road you pay $ 2 to enter and $ 1 more for pictures. This sleek and small pagoda is in downtown Yangon. Its old name, Kyaik A-thote, suggests that it was built by some king mon, since the word for pagoda was mon "Kyaik". Because it is in the center of the city, Sule pagoda itself is the heart of Yangon, where the main arteries and neighborhoods begin. Shoes must be removed when you enter and the same goes for any other temples, pagodas and houses. It is important to remember that no one should ever sit with your feet pointing towards the stupa,

While walking through the maze of streets in Yangon, you discover in the greatest cross street this beautiful pagoda, which is like a beacon in the middle of urban chaos. You can rest and meditate inside as it is a true oasis.
