Shwedagon Pagoda: Golden Spires, Quiet Sunsets & Local Rituals
★4.8(107)
Show up at 5pm to watch the monks light thousands of candles as the gold exterior shifts from burning yellow to deep orange. It covers a massive area, so wear slip-on shoes since you must go barefoot everywhere. Spend at least two hours wandering the base of the main stupa. Skip the mid-day heat entirely. If you want context on the history, hire a private guide, but the atmosphere alone justifies the entry fee.
