Why go

The former capital's name points to the Mon history of Lower Myanmar, while its position makes it a separate destination from Yangon. Bago suits travelers tracing the country's former centers and Buddhist sites. Choose individual monuments before fixing a route, and check current access and road conditions for each stop.

Useful to know

  • Confirm which Bago sites are accessible before planning a visit from Yangon.
