Bagan

There are a few sunsets in the world that compare to the marigold light of the fading day that settles on the patina of the thousands of temples on the plains Bagan. Unlike the temples at Angkor, Cambodia, the appeal of the Buddhist temples in Bagan is not in their individual majesty, but in the high density and endless array of similar structures going out of the plains. There are about 13,000 temples that used to stand in the city of Bagan, the capital of the ancient Kingdom of Pagan. Some 2,000 still remain, and it’s this spiritual plenitude that makes a trip to Bagan. What do you think of this spiritual culture.
