Pilgrims visit the ancient cultural region, Bagan, without stopping, and most of them are from the Yangon, Mandalay, and Bago regions, according to residents.
“There are still visitors in Bagan. Most of our clients are residents of Yangon, Bago, and Mandalay. Bagan has non-stop arrival of pilgrims,” said Ko Thant Zin, who provides travel services for pilgrims.
Despite the monsoon season, the weather in Bagan is fine, making the visitor arrivals increase continually, he said.
From Bagan, pilgrims continue to visit other towns.
“Some visitors from Yangon hire us to continue their visit to Mandalay or Taunggyi and Inlay after they finish touring Bagan,” said Ko Thant Zin. — Thit Taw/ZS
