Shwe SanDaw Pagoda is one of the interesting place of Pyay which is enrichment of historical of Pyu.There's a huge Buddha statue at the end of the eastern staircase that's quite impressive.You have a great time on this pagoda and can see ancient arts and ancient pagoda here and there. Nice scenes that the whole Pyay city and Ayeyarwaddy river banks altogether with Nawadday bridge can be seen from the pagoda.It's worth to visit.Behind of this pagoda has Sehtatgyi Buddha ,also huge one.

I have visited many Pagodas in Myanmar. I have seen thousands of lovely Buddha images across Myanmar. But Akauk Taung was a unique experience. Reached village Htonbo (one and half hour drive from Pyay) at 8.00 in the morning. The village welcomes us with a statue of Tha Khin Mya. He is one of the Martyrs, assassinated (with General Aung San and others) on 19 July 1947. The bank of Ayrawaddy river was crowded. One can share a boat with other passengers. But we paid 15000 MMK to have a special ride. A smiling woman asked whether I wanted a guide. Though she was unable to speak English, I was able to chat with her in broken (basic) Burmese. She was very helpful. There is no fixed 'guide fee', whatever you feel like, you pay. It was fascinating to watch the Buddha images carved in the mountain cliff at a particularly difficult angle. They are very impressive. I kept on wondering about the unknown artists and devotees. We climbed some hundred steps to reach the Pagoda. On the way was able to closely see some of the carved images. They are stunning. Overall a memorable experience. Don't miss it if you are going to Pyay.

Ancient huge stupa that is resided in one of the world heritage sites. What a magnificent pagoda! The only bad thing is it was beside the road that might cause the damage to this precious world heritage pagoda.

Even though I don't believe that the python is super old but it is a gorgeous looking Burmese Python and the way it lives around people is unique.
