Full Day Yangon Heritage
After pick-up from the hotel, we transfer from the hotel to the corner of Strand and Pansodan roads, an area with Yangon’s most impressive colonial buildings. We then start our heritage tour taking in iconic sites such as the former Law Court and the former US Embassy. We cross the greenery of Maha Bandoola Garden where the Independence Monument is situated and head to City Hall, which is a great place for architectural photography.
We then drive to a restaurant for lunch and later proceed to the largest Catholic Church in Myanmar. Next we return to Pansodan Road and continue our afternoon colonial exploration with visits to the High Court building, the former Irrawaddy Flotilla headquarters and an icon of Yangon – the famed colonial Strand Hotel. This institution is famed for its traditional English afternoon tea (on your own account).
We complete our trip back in time with an extended visit to the jewel encrusted Shwedagon Pagoda.
