The Journey

Legend claims it's over 2,600 years old, built during the time of the Buddha. More than just a monument, it's a vital hub for contemporary Burmese politics and ideology, standing proudly at the city's center. Its golden spire acts as a focal point, inviting contemplation and offering a glimpse into Myanmar's rich spiritual heritage. A visit to Sule Pagoda is a must for anyone seeking to understand the soul of Yangon.
Big Buddha (Phuket)
Ascend to the Nakkerd Hills and be awestruck by the Big Buddha of Phuket, one of the island's most revered landmarks. This colossal 45-meter tall statue, visible from afar, exudes serenity and majesty. Overlooking Chalong and Kata, the Big Buddha offers not only a spiritual experience but also panoramic views of Phuket Town and Karon Beach. It's a place for reflection, offering respite from the bustling island life and a chance to connect with Thai culture and spirituality.
Botataung Pagoda
Venture to the Botataung Pagoda, a venerable shrine nestled near the Yangon River. Believed to have been first erected by the Mon people around the same time as the Shwedagon Pagoda, this sacred site boasts a history stretching back over 2,500 years. According to local lore, it was originally known as Kyaik-de-att in the Mon language. Today, the Botataung Pagoda continues to draw visitors with its spiritual atmosphere and connection to Yangon's ancient past, offering a glimpse into the city's enduring cultural heritage.
