The biggest Reclining Buddha in Myanmar with full length 66.95 m. and high 17.36 m. Its construction began more than 100 years ago and have finished only in 1970s with installing eyes. The the Buddha’s eyes are the most amazing thing – to make the class eyes lively the have tried many times. This Buddha is so famous so it’s easy to find this Temple.

5 months agoSurprisingly empty. No bags allowed inside but there are lockers you can rent. Phones are allowed but some areas are off limits for photography.4 floors with 3-4 galleries per floor. It has everything from Royal Regalia and thrones to prehistoric dinosaur bones. The gallery on the major tribes that make up Myanmar was fascinating as was the music and art gallery.
Well worth a visit if you are in the city. Give yourself 2-3 hours to explore.
3 months agoI absolutely loved this place! Unbelievably cheap at 5000 MMK for foreigners and 500 MMK for locals. Stunning things on show from original Costumes of kings and queens gone by, weapons, jewellery, beautifully carved teak cupbards and shelves, thrones, EVERYTHING GILDED in Burmese gold. Different eras in Myanmar shown through rubbings taken from stones and carvings amd payas in Shwedaggon, Mingun, Bagan, Mandalay and other famous places. Even prehistoric fossils uncovered all over Myanmar. Well worth a visit. 🙂a week agoI love it and want to go back there again. There are many things to learn and study.a year agoI was there last year people said its closed now as they plan to move it to another place so you need to check about this. But although of this I want to share my experience about this amazing museum as I really enjoyed to be there last year. First you pay as forginer 500k and you have to leave your bag at outside locker and it’s mandatory The museum consist of 5 floors each one has a story and it’s special and different items. If you want to know about Burma history and traditions and culture this will be the best place ever as almost show every thing you need to know specially its very hard to find someone explain all of this to you as the history of Burma is long and complicated. I took around 1.5 hours to finish my tour and still feeling its not enough. Overall its a great experience and I hope it still open.2 months agoA good place to learn about Burma. A quite place too.
