Tips

Know Before You Go

The Shwedagon Pagoda is a great cone-shaped Buddhist monument that crowns a hill about one mile north of the Cantonment. The pagoda itself is a solid brick stupa that is completely covered with gold. It rises 326 feet (100 m) on a hill of 168 feet (51 m).

Dala is a perfect spot for a day trip from Yangon. A trip to Dala township will give a quick snapshot of life in a small Burmese village. A visit to Dala township is perfect for those who want to take a quick look at simple Burmese village life and need a change of scenery from Myanmar’s touristy spots.
