Mandalay – Mingun – Mandalay (gold leaf workshop)

Breakfast in the hotel.

Transfer to the jetty to take a boat that will take us to the town of Mingún by the Ayeyarwaddy River, allowing us to observe the local life on its shores. Upon arrival we will visit the majestic and unfinished Pahtodawgyi Pagoda, as well as its huge bell weighing more than 90 tons, and the curious Myatheindan Pagoda, which represents Mount Meru (mythical and sacred mountain for Buddhists).

Return to Mandalay. In the afternoon, we will visit a craft workshop of gold leaf, the Kuthodaw Pagoda with its 729 marble slabs in which are inscribed the teachings of Buddha and the Golden Palace Monastery with its excellent teak carving.

Finally we will enjoy the spectacular views and the sunset of the Mandalay Hill.
