    Jeremy Lin, Taiwan

Bagan, known as the "City of Ten Thousand Pagodas", is located on the banks of the Ayeyarwady River, winding through the central plains of Myanmar.

Bagan, which possesses a large number of temples, pagodas, ashrams, pilgrimage sites, as well as murals and sculptures, is a holy place to appreciate Buddhist architecture. This heritage site showcases Bagan civilization from 11th to 13th century, when Bagan was the capital of a regional kingdom, and the historic sites reflect the religious fervor of this Buddhist country.

In 2019, Bagan was officially inscribed as a World Heritage by UNESCO.
