For any tourist who pays a visit to Myanmar, there are a number of attractions in store. However, if you happen to be specifically interested in Buddhist tourism, then be prepared all the more to have one of the greatest vacations of your life.

The reason for this is quiet simple. Myanmar, being predominantly a Buddhist country, has a number of Buddhist Monuments spread throughout the length and breadth of the country. These monuments are tangible expressions of the profound faith that the people have in their religion and lord. A visit to these monuments is bound to fill your heart with deep sense of spirituality and enhance your knowledge about Buddha and Buddhism on the whole. Moreover, a visit to these religious monuments will also give you an opportunity to witness a number of devotees carrying out their religious chores. Observing these devotees and interacting with them will give you an additional knowledge and pleasure - something which you will not find in any book.

The most important Buddhist Monuments which you must visit during your Buddhist trip to the country are the beautiful pagodas. Shwedagon Pagoda visit, undoubetedly, will be the highlight of your visit and if you miss it out, your trip will remain grossly incomplete. The pagoda is located in the Yangon city which is home to a whole lot of other Buddhist monuments as well. Like Yangon, Buddhist Monuments in other parts of Myanmar, too, will delight you with their distinct appeal.

This section introduces you to a number of these outstanding Monuments of Myanmar. You will find details about their location, history, architecture and most importantly accessibility. Other Buddhist attractions which can be visited together or as a sidetrip are also mentioned.
