A unique shrine - you must visit here! BUT, be prepared: 1. The only transport is a cargo vehicle adapted for the transport of pilgrims. 2. A huge number of pilgrims. 3. Women are not allowed directly to the stone. 4. Constant strong wind at the top. 5. Remember that you will have to enter the territory of the shrine without shoes! 6. I advise you not to forget to buy a piece of gold leaf to add it to the stone!

Thanbyuzayat War Cemetery was created by the Army Graves Service who transferred to it all graves along the northern section of the railway, between Moulmein and Nieke. There are now 3,149 Commonwealth and 621 Dutch burials of the Second World war in the cemetery.

Another site to show respect for the fallen. Many Australians and 3 New Zealanders remembered here. So many, so young fought for the freedoms.

The views within and from the pagoda are spectacular. Why would you not put a pagoda in this perfect location? A great place to see the evening in - particularly if the sunset is wonderful!!

Very popular spot to feed massive fish. Great pagoda with many features. This is a pagoda where some of the areas are able to be visited by men only. This pagoda is on the edge of the sea in a spectacular setting.

This is the Pagoda described by Kipling in the Road to Mandalay (By the old Mawlymayne Pagoda....). It is the biggest tourist attraction in Mawlymayne and the favourite sunset viewpoint. Another pagoda is listed and people are inaccurateley posting reviews of this pagoda to that one. It is a large Bhuddist pagoda with viewing area.
