Dominating the skyline from its hilltop perch, the Shwedagon Pagoda is a must-see in Yangon. As one of the most significant Buddhist sites globally, it remains a vital part of daily life in the city. The pagoda is adorned with nearly 80,000 precious stones, including 5,448 diamonds, 2,317 rubies, and a stunning 76-carat diamond atop its golden crown. Open from dawn, it draws worshippers from early morning until late evening, making it a truly dynamic and sacred space. As a living, practising religious site, visitors should observe certain customs when visiting. Shoes and socks must be removed, and respectful attire, such as no shorts, is required. When exploring the pagoda, remember to walk clockwise, beginning from the left. This is a common practice at all Buddhist sites and shows respect for the tradition. While at the pagoda, be mindful of how you sit—avoid pointing your feet towards any Buddha images, and instead, tuck them underneath you. Observe how the locals sit, often cross-legged, and follow their lead. In addition, try to minimise disruptions while taking photos, as the people around you are engaged in worship and may prefer not to be photographed. A gentle approach ensures a respectful visit to this sacred site.

Tanaka Farms offers unique farm tours that change with the seasons. In spring, you can enjoy sweet, juicy strawberries and take home a one-pound basket of your own. After the tour, you can visit the Barnyard Educational Exhibit to meet and interact with friendly farm animals. It’s a fun and educational experience for the whole family.
