A good place to have a panoramic view of Bagan. It is located in the center of old Bagan. Climbing to the top of the tower can overlook the entire tower area. The platform at the top of the tower is also one of the good places to watch the sunrise in Bagan, as many local coachmen know. The view here is no worse than that of the famous Ruishandu Pagoda, and you can avoid the crowd of people and watch the sunrise quietly with the people around you.Nyaung-U · 2.3km from Bagan

The temple was built in 1102 on a huge brick platform in a style similar to the Nagayon Pagoda. There is a huge sitting Buddha in the temple, which is very shocking. Behind the temple, there are many small pagodas, where photography is not allowed, which is also a kind of protection for buildings and murals. There are many exquisite murals in the main entrance hall, describing some stories about the Buddha, as well as many Mahayana Buddhist statues and Hindu god statues such as Indra, Shiva, Vishnu, etc. The artistic level is very high, and it is very worthwhile for tourists who come here to appreciate it. Fan. Abiyadana, a follower of Mahayana Buddhism, was a princess who built the temple by her husband, the king.Nyaung-U · 2.6km from Bagan

Izza Gawna Temple is a two-storey Indian-style temple built on a high platform. The name of the temple comes from an eminent monk named Izza Gawna who brought wealth to everyone in the old Bagan period. The stone carvings in the temple recorded the names of the land donors, many precious cultural relics were found here, and the murals on the walls depict the story of the reincarnation of the Buddha. There is an exquisite Buddha statue of Sakyamuni enshrined in the temple, and there are two small golden Buddhas guarding left and right in the front hall.Nyaung-U · 4.7km from Bagan

【Scenery】I took a one-day guided tour. There are few people and you can see it leisurely. 【Fun】The precise sculptures of beginners and dancers, as well as the statues of Garuda and Naga will fascinate you.

This place is great and very interesting, but climbing is not allowed, you can't climb up to watch the sunset, so try somewhere else. This is a very grand building and its architectural structure is also quite spectacular. This is a great place to take a hot air balloon ride in Bagan and watch the sunrise, but my wife doesn't like hot air balloons. There are many people along the way who want to sell you paintings. I am going to Bagan, Myanmar soon, and I would like to know if it is still possible to climb up to the Burdi Pagoda to take pictures of the sunrise and sunset? If anyone who has been to Myanmar recently knows about it, please provide information, thank you very much

Many temples in the Bagan Dynasty are famous for their murals, and Abhiyadana Temple is one of them. The murals on the outer walls of the cloisters depict bodhisattvas, while the murals on the inner walls depict various Buddhas. On the walls at the main entrance, you can also see scenes of traditional theatrical performances, accompanied by information in Mon script.
