Bago

Bago is also an amazing city. Buddhist pagodas and temples everywhere. I could still feel the energy of the Buddha at some places. Legend says Lord Buddha has visited Bago and from what I felt at certain places, especially where the Buddha is sitting with his disciples, it must be true.
Also impressive is seeing the monks getting food and presents from devotees.
The distances are large (the scale of the map in the Lonely Planet guide looks to be 10x wrong). Therefore I took a guide on a motorbike, who knew all the interesting monuments very well.
