If you do not travel so far, you can take short trips to Yangon.☑️
There are many pagodas to visit in Yangon.
Our day trip was to a flower hill and Japan pagodas in Hmawbi.
It takes about 2 hours to drive from Yangon to Hmawbi. It takes about 15 minutes to drive from the Lay Htee 16 th to flower mountain.
Actually, a shoot on the way is beautiful. You can see the green sight and the gardens.
It takes about ten minutes to arrive at the pagoda from the foot of a flower hill to the pagoda. Adults can also walk there. The stairs are easy to get up and down.
There are not many people on the pagoda.
🚫Sayadaw didn't allow to eat fish and meat in the mountain. So please bring your lunch box with vegetables.
Praying on the Buddha images and it's honestly nice to take photos while looking at the scenery.
✔️ But wear a mask. Wash your hands.
You can visit not only the Flower Pagoda but also the nearby pagodas.
Be careful of shoes because the forest roads are slippery.
After worshiping, you can admire organic fruits on the market street below the pagoda.
In part, small shops along the road can be supported by small plantations.
Why encourage?
🚫Along the way, children waved and begged for money. I do not want to be paid for it.
However, I think it would be better to support more in small shops because we have to support the local community.
We are worried that it will destroy the morale of young children.
After eating a flower on the way back from the mountain, you can visit the Japan pagoda.
Just enter through the sign that looks like Aung Zamutaw Yeik Thar.
There are 301 ancient pagodas.
🚫There is a big sign saying not to shoot video and photo. Please, follow their rule and requirements.
✔️You have to enter after one batch. It only comes with a mask.
After visiting the pagodas, you can visit the nearby Replica Bagan Pagoda.
The sun was so hot that I entered into only two pagodas.
It was getting late in the evening, so I just returned to Yangon.
As a short trip, I wrote about the contemporary situation as a matter of information.
✔️Wear masks and protect your hands by washing them.
