Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon is the most important Buddhist Temple in Myanmar. The 99 metre tall Shwedagon Pagoda, also known as the Great Dragon Pagoda, houses a number of important religious relics.

Not all historians and archaeologists agree about the origins of Shwedagon Pagoda and there are a number of different as to when the temple was built and who built it. The prevailing theory at present is that Shwedagon Pagoda was built sometime during a period from the 6th to 10th Centuries BC, potentially making Shwedagon Pagoda the oldest remaining Buddhist stupa in the world. There are four entrances leading up to the Pagoda itself, which is constructed largely from bricks many of which are covered in gold.
