Situated approximately 11 km south of Mandalay, Amarapura is the ancient capital of the Konbaung Dynasty. Places of interest include the Patodawgyi Pagoda, silk and cotton weaving workshops and the U Bein Bridge, the world’s longest Teakwood Bridge (1208 meters long). Another of Amarapura’s treasures is Maha Gandayon Monastery which is currently home to more than 1000 monks.
It’s hard to pick a highlight, overall Japan was easier to navigate than expected and also cheaper than expected. I loved the gardens, walking down the Path of Philosophy on a beautiful spring day, the train trips looking at the scenery, especially the trip to Koya-San.
