Head out for a half-day guided tour to Mandalay’s finest heritage sites. You’ll walk to the top of Mandalay Hill, which rises 240 meters above the city, for great views of the surrounding countryside, Irrawaddy River and city center. At the base of the hill you’ll stop to visit Shwe Nandaw Kyaung- or Golden Palace Monastery, noted for its intricate wood carvings and to Kyauk Taw Gyi Pagoda to view the huge marble Buddha.
Also visit Kuthodaw Pagoda, Myanmar’s first World Heritage site, home to ‘the world’s largest book’, a collection of more than 700 marble slabs inscribed with Buddhist teachings.
