Karaweik Hall, a Royal floating barge on the Royal Lake for

Pagoda described by Somerset Maugham: "The Shwedagon rose
superb, glistening with its gold, like a sudden hope in the
dark night of the soul of which the mystics write,
glistening against the fog and smoke of the thriving city."
This massive bell-shaped stupa rises nearly 100 meters above
its hill-top surroundings. Wander through this magnificent
structure and its courtyards, stupas, bells, Temples, and
Buddha images, and see religious and secular visitors from
