Bagan can be overwhelming even for the most seasoned of travelers. First, the natural conditions can be unforgiving, sometimes unbearable. If you go to in the wrong month, you’ll be wiping thick layers of dust off your deal with in the 43C heat. Second, the sheer number alone is daunting. Over 2200 temples as well as pagodas! I always joked that if you close your eyes as well as throw a rock aimlessly, you’re most likely going to hit one. as well as lastly, an ocean of ancient structures that stand not as well far from one one more isn’t simple to navigate.
Okay, right now I’m just making reasons for starting our journey lost. The reality is, the Bagan Archaeological zone can be rather confusing on the very first day. looking at the map, we instantly presumed that since the key temples were marked, it would be simple to discover them. however not all the pagodas as well as stupas are on the map. While you’re at one, you can already see the next as well as the one next to it. It’s simple to error one for another. Excuses, I know. I’m just an idiot.
But no matter exactly how you begin your day, Bagan has a method of blowing the poor vibe away, dust as well as all. The locals are a few of the nicest, friendliest I’ve satisfied ever. everybody we asked willingly equipped us with the much-needed directions (which we may or may not have remembered) that led us to the a few of the site’s major temples.
Major temples, eh? Yes, major temples, since not all temples were produced equal. (Some are not even temples.) These are usually the biggest as well as most historically considerable (not always, though). The drawback is, these are likewise the most crowded.
Remember: make sure you wear clothes that cover your shoulders as well as knees, as well as eliminate shoes as well as socks when you enter. These sites are sacred to the locals so please respect their culture.
Here are pictures of seven of Bagan’s most prominent temples as well as pagodas with a bit bit more information just to keep your expectations in check.
