If you have visited Bagan, Yangon, or any other places in Myanmar, you will notice that this Buddha statue is quite unique. There’s no other Buddha statues that are made this way. It represents the time while Buddha took the extreme method of meditation without eating. The place is peaceful and not very well known (even with the locals). Not many people go to this place but it’s peaceful and beautiful. There are many other interesting nats (spirits) statues below the Buddha image and there’s a big reclining Buddha too. Worth a visit, although not a must, if you are in Mandalay.

We loved this Gate and couldn't stop taking photos of horse carriages etc coming and going through it. It is so old and still standing strong. It is easy to find being on the main road between Bagan and Nyaung U. Plenty of parking space to stop and get out and take photos or videos.
