Nyang U Market

It served as a model for stupas that were later constructed all over the nation and marked an important shift in the relationship between traditional Burmese religion and Theravada Buddhism.
Shwezigon Temple in Bagan
To see the amazing panoramic views of the surrounding monuments, keep going to Khay Min Ga Temple. The next stop is Ananda Temple, a magnificent example of combining architectural elements from India and Myanmar. The temple is home to four standing Buddhas, each of which faces a different direction. Visit a local lacquerware workshop after lunch so you may learn about the artisans’ traditional methods and view their distinctive and lovely creations from this serene region.
Ananda Temple
In the afternoon, head to some other famous temples in Bagan such as Dhammayangyi Temple, Htilominlo Temple or Sularmuni Temple, since the 12th century, absolutely a spectacular place to take pictures. Today’s highlight is the sunset beauty from the Shwesandaw Pagoda. Then, transfer back to the hotel.
Our tour service offers a wonderful overview of Bagan’s history, culture, and local ways of life in addition to the temples. Visit the villages close to Bagan today to observe how the majority of Burmese people actually live. Later, as you tour Bagan by pony cart, which enables access to distant locations that are inaccessible to cars, you will see the city from a variety of angles. Transfer to the jetty where a private wooden river boat is waiting in the late afternoon.
Sitting under the shade or on the open-deck, you are able to be shown to fabulous views as you cruise down the Irrawaddy River to Shwezigon Pagoda. A private Myanmar boat tour on the river during sunset time will hopefully show you a marvelous sight. Relax and enjoy the scenery. Trip ends. We hope that you love this Bagan 2 day itinerary.

We plan our own itineraries, travel alone and avoid organised tour groups. However when we decided to visit Myanmar we had very little time to make our own arrangements and contacted E Travel instead with our requirements. We couldn't have been more impressed with the company's services, which included making the necessary hotel and domestic airline reservations, and providing us with impressively knowledgeable English-speaking guides. Our three-week trip to Myanmar would not have been nearly as satisfying and informative without agent's assistance.read less

Spring taught us so much about the history and culture of Myanmar. All of the flights went smoothly. The lodging was good and the food was excellent.read less
