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.
