Itinerary
Upon arrival flight to Mandalay, SM travel guide will welcome you at Mandalay airport and driven to the city, a journey of about one hour. Our first visit is Shwe Nandaw Kyuang, also known as the Golden Palace Monastery, which is noted for its intricate wood carvings. Then visit Kayuk Taw Gyi Pagoda to view its huge marble Buddha. The marble is from Sagyin Quarry and took 10,000 men almost two weeks to transfer to its current location. Afterwards, visit Kuthodaw Pagoda, home to ‘the world’s largest book’, a collection of more than 700 marble slabs inscribed with Buddhist teachings. Afternoon sightseeing includes a visit to Zegyo market and some of Mandalay's cottage industries, such as weaving and kalaga tapestry-making, Burmese sweet-making, and bamboo fan-making near Eindaw Yar Pagoda. We spend our sunset at the top of Mandalay Hill, which rises 240 metres above the city.

Today exploration is to royal capital of Mandalay. Transfer to jetty to board a local private boat to Mingun. The visit begins at the famous Mingun Pahtodawqyi. This huge brick structure was left unfinished after an astrologer predicted the king would die should the temple be completed. Then, see the Mingun Bell which, weighing in at over 90 tons, is considered to be the world’s largest uncracked ringing bell. We transfer 15km to AVA (INWA), the ancient capital of Shan and Burmese Kingdoms for over four centuries. We visit the Bagaya Teak Monastery, over three hundred years old yet well preserved and still in use by local monks; the Nanmyin Watch Tower, the last standing structure of the Ava dynasty palace compound also known as the “Leaning Tower of Ava”; and we continue to the Ancient Kingdom Of Sagaing, located across the mighty Ayeyarwaddy River. In the afternoon, visit picturesque Sagaing Hill which is perhaps the living center of Buddhist faith in Myanmar today. The hills here are dotted with numerous pagodas and monasteries. In the late afternoon, transfer to Ubein Bridge, silhouetted by the setting sun, is a magical experience and a photographer’s dream.

Breakfast:
Early morning transfer to Mandalay train station and 3 hour train journey that crosses the famous Gokteik Viaduct, once the highest railway trestle in the world. It was constructed between 1899 and 1900 by Pennsylvania and Maryland Bridge Construction to further expand British influence in Myanmar. This incredible train journey affords stunning vistas as the train trundles along at a snail’s pace. After disembarking from the train, continue drive to Pyin Oo Lwin, a former British hill station and enjoy a packed lunch at a Tea Plantation. Then, at the Botanical Gardens, we feast our eyes on the variety of flora available in the region. Just outside of Pyin Oo Lwin, we’ll stop at the View Restaurant. Located directly across a narrow valley from Dat Taw Gyi waterfalls, this is a fantastic spot to grab a coffee and get a final look at the beautiful scenery of the Pyin Oo Lwin region. Then, drive back to Mandalay.
