Burma Bagan: The City of 3000 Temples
Duration 50m
Occupied by the Mons, the Burmans and the British, Burma has known multiple cultures. The city of Bagan, “the land of golden roofs,” is a jewel of Burma. It is a testament to the past grandeur of the kings of Bagan who reigned over the first Burman empire. There are monuments of Sri Lankan, Indian, Tibetan, Mon and Burman influence. This majestic Buddhist archaeological site, comparable to Angkor in neighboring Cambodia, is home to more that 2,000 temples, stupas and pagodas, built between the 11th and 13th centuries and spread across 40 km2. It is the largest concentration of Buddhist monuments in the world.
