In South Asia, the place I would go to is the Temples at Bagan, Myanmar. They say that, Bagan is a very spiritual land.The city attracted monks and students from as far as India, Ceylon as well as the Khmer Empire. According to the Burmese chronicle, Bagan was founded in the second century CE, and strengthened in 849 CE by King Pyinnya. To me, its amazing to think that there would be something left of an old history to experience right now.(I would like the reader to be able to experience and understand the feelings I have for something.) The Bagan city grew in size, and became a familiar center for religious and worldly studies. They specialize in Pali scholarship in grammar and philosophical-psychological studies, as well as working in a variety of language. They definitely seemed to be more of an advanced group. I know lots of people have lost touch to their spiritual side. I’m not trying to sound like some Buddhist or priest, but if people only stopped and experienced the temples instead of going through the motion I think they would be able to connect in a significant way. People say that the Temples at Bagan, Myanmar have one of the most beautiful sunsets, so while I’m exploring the Thatbyinnyu Temple, I’ll make sure to catch the alluring sun at it’s final appearance of the day. What would you do if were to suddenly appear at the Temples at Bagan?
