Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Pegu Travels, Yangon (Rangoon), Yangon Region
Early morning, drive to Kyaikhtiyo (about 5 hours’ drive) in the Mon state, site of the famous ‘Golden Rock’.
It is a large boulder, which appears delicately balanced, supposedly by the assistance of a well-placed hair of the Buddha, on the edge of a cliff near the top of a mountain. It is one of the most revered Buddhist shrines.
We take a local truck from the base camp to the beginning of the trail from where it is a 45-minute walk to the top and enjoy Golden Rock sightseeing which includes spectacular mountain views and pilgrims at the Golden Rock. We will stay overnight at the hotel in Kyaikhtiyo Pagoda.
The next day we will enjoy the beautiful morning sunrise at Kyaikhtiyo before descending the mountain for transport back to base camp and driving back to Yangon. On the way to Yangon, we can visit interesting monasteries and pagodas in Bago.
Duration: 1 day
