Hello guys welcome back to my channeland I know I haven't been uploading for a while but now I'm here.
So are youready to go with me to Bagan Well, the trip starts around 8 p.
m so we had to ride all night and they serve us breakfast around like 4 or 5 a.
m.
in aplace which gives a lot of Myanmar village vibes as you may see here.
*Guide Lady explaining about Bagan in Myanmar Language* I'm holding theseroses because of a famous lore.
Are you ready? Well, legends say that if one offers thesame things and wished for the exact same wish in certain four pagodaswhich are known as “Swal Taw Lay Suu” during a day, that wish might actually come true.
Well, the person who does this needs to be religious and GOOD, too, obviously.
So, Iwas planning to offer a rose in each pagoda and this pagoda is where myfirst one goes.
So let's go to another pagoda which is “Shwe Zigone”.
A famousand an interesting thing about this pagoda is that you can see the wholefigure of the pagoda in that little pond.
Didn't leave a rose here because this pagoda does not include in the mentioned lore.
We had to cross the “Irrawady River” before our nextdestination which is called “Tant Kyi Taung” pagoda if my memory serves meright and since the pagoda is at the top ofthe mountain we again have to go up there by cars and here we go.
I left my secondrose here and I personally think that this one has the most breathtaking view By that time, it was almost midday and wewere pretty exhausted and sleepy honestly but seeing this view just wokeme up like literally You can see me offering only three rosesthroughout this video because I forgot to take the video of the last rose and Idon't remember why.
Although this cupola is situated right on the riverbank it washot due to Bagan's weather and time.
Then, we had our lunch.
Although this was a budget trip, the food was pretty good After that we got to take a rest forlike two hours and there's me trying to open the door with style but failed because my friends locked the door from the inside.
This is the first pagoda we went in the eveningthe weather was not too hot and we were not in a rush at the time.
We had achance to look around really well and could study the architecture of the pagoda.
it's the place where we can put ourshoes without causing any fees.
Every pagoda has a place like this but this one looks pretty cute to me Our trip lasts only two days sobasically we had to travel all around Bagan and all the famous pagodas injust two days and that was pretty exhausting.
I'm not gonna lie butcompared to the time and money we have to use, the experience we got is reallyprecious There we had our dinner which was, by theway, pretty good and to be honest, we were pretty exhausted as sleepy as a childbecause we travelled a lot in just Day One We had to get up like 7 a.
m.
the nextday, had our breakfast and started our journey We all obviously wish that the tripwould last longer but since we were in a budget trip and we had little time.
.
but, still we enjoyed the trip a lot and what I'm trying to say here is that if youwere to go to Bagan in a luxury or not-so-budget trip, there are tons of otherthings and experience and places you can try and go and do and that would bepretty awesome and I would love to go there again using a lot of money , someday.
For the time being, I'm still really broke.
But that's in my bucket listand I will do that someday in the future for sure People love to throw their money thereand wish for things.
If you were to go to Bagan with your own plan, you can lookaround in such carriages and ebikes This is my favorite one so far.
Justwalking up to the pagoda makes you feel like you're in some kind offairytale.
I feel like this place give you the “Cambodian” vibes.
I mean, if youwere to go to pagodas in Cambodia, I think you will feel exactly the same.
I've really felt like that even thoughI've never been to Cambodia.
If that makes sense.
One thing you must do if you go to Baganis hand-painting and this is a clip of me having my hand painted.
It looks reallybeautiful and it doesn't even cost much, you know, you can even do it in abudget trip and I'm pretty satisfied with the outcome.
You can have your ownmini tourist guides in Bagan There will be many kids who will put “Thanakha” on you and explain you about the history of pagodas and there they are And then we go to the monastery of “Shin Arahan” who was the first monk to establish Buddhism in Myanmar.
After that, we went to” Mount.
Poppa”and wegot to see what it looks like when it rained in Bagan so we were pretty worriedback after the rain, the weather was really fine and here we are at the baseof the Mount Poppa This is the legendary flowers of MountPoppa called “Sakarr Pann” and a surprising fact is that there were many monkeys just runningand living around and you can feed them.
You will also get an experience ofhiking because you would have to climb up the Mount.
Poppa on foot and that would eatup all your energy but it was worth it because of the view up there.
The famous snack in that place is thosepotato chips and I bought them for my home.
And then we started our journey home.
Iif any of you are still watching, thankyou so much for your attention and I hope you enjoy and feel a little lessbored by watching this video and.
