Day 1
BaganAfter breakfast, your guide will meet you at the hotel and transfer to Ayar jetty, located in Old Bagan on the bank of Ayeyarwaddy river and take a private boat to go across the mighty river. Take 30 mins cruising to the upstream and arrive at the West Selan island village, which is one of the islands along Ayarwaddy river. You will have a chance to see the stilt houses as flooded in every monsoon. Visit around vegetable farming (only during late November to mid-February), different small vegetation in each family, rebuilding family business (only during July & August when houses are damaged by high water). Then continue boat ride for 45 minutes to the Kyauk Gu jetty and take 2 minutes to walk through the shady trees to the cave. Visit the cave for 30 to 45 mins before driving back to Bagan for lunch.
In the afternoon, continue driving to the top of Tuyin Taung or the Tuyin hill, located on the eastern side of the Ayeyarwaddy Riverbank of Bagan. Similar to Tantkyi Taung Pagoda, another famous pagoda in the Bagan region is the Tuyin Taung Pagoda. The Tuyin Taung Pagoda was built during A.D 1059 by King Anawrahta. King Vizaraba from Sri Lanka donated one of Buddha's tooth relic and King Anawrahta duplicated with another one and embedded in the sacred place inside this pagoda.
There are 32 statues of elephants made in ratio to different directions at the base of the pagoda. It is an octagonal shaped design platform on which the pagoda resides. Many years passed by but still, the pagoda is maintained from time to time.
There is a saying that if one could go and pay homage to Shwezigon pagoda, Tantkyi Taung pagoda, Tuyin Taung pagoda and Lawka Nandar pagoda in a single day, a wish comes true.
Enjoy Sunset view from the viewing point.
