    During your tour, you will have the opportunity to visit Tu Yin Taung, Shwezigon, Lawka Nandar, and Tant Kyi Taung Pagodas. In local legendary stories, “King Anawarhta”, the founder of the Bagan Dynasty, is regarded as a heroic figure with magical powers. According to the tale, he was once gifted a replica of the holy canine tooth of Lord Buddha from Sri Lanka. He placed this relic on his precious white elephant and allowed the animal to roam freely. The elephant rested at four different locations, where the king later constructed a stupa on each spot. This pilgrimage is deeply rooted in Myanmar’s culture, and local pilgrims believe that if they pay homage to all four pagodas in one day, their wishes will come true.

    Along the way, experience the slow-paced village life, savor authentic local cuisines, and enjoy a delightful boat ride. Enjoy an unforgettable day of discovery and uncover Bagan’s captivating history, including the fable of King Anawrahta and his beloved white elephant. Trace the king’s footsteps and explore the four legendary sites where stupas were erected, each with its own captivating narrative.

    Experience the best of Bagan in a single day tour, designed to capture the essence of local life and culture. From a brief introduction to Buddhism to exploring glittering temples, sensational sunsets, and vibrant local markets, you have everything covered.
