Mandalay Holidays
The second-largest city in Myanmar, Mandalay is the former capital of this country in Southeast Asia. Along with the usual tourist attractions like temples and monasteries, museums and palaces, the city also has a pulsating energy that is the most palpable in its streets, markets and bars. Due to the influence of Buddhism in the region, the monasteries and pagodas in Mandalay are many,
particularly in the Mandalay Hill area. The most popular ones among these are the Shwenandaw Monastery, Hsinbyume Pagoda, Kuthodaw Pagoda, Atumashi Monastery as well as Mahagandhayon Monastery. Mingun Pahtodawgyi is one of the most popular stupas in Mandalay, particularly known for the Mingun Bell, the second largest ringing bell in the world. The U Bein Bridge, the oldest and longest teakwood bridge in the world, is also among the most renowned sites in the city. The Mandalay Palace which was reconstructed in the 1990s also draws many visitors to its royal gates.
One of the most popular markets in Mandalay is the Jade Market famous for jade jewellery. Besides, Amara Waddy is known for its woodcraft and handicrafts and is one of the best places to buy a souvenir in Mandalay. The Gem Palace should be on your list if you want to buy precious stones, timepieces, eyewear and sterling silver pieces in Mandalay. Kai Tan Market is a popular place to buy some fresh produce in Mandalay including fish products, fruits and vegetables.
