About Shwedagon Pagoda
Shwedagon Pagoda, near Yangon City Centre, is the most important religious site in Myanmar. The main pagoda is 99 metres tall and is covered in over 20,000 solid gold bars and topped with a large gold umbrella ornament encrusted with over 7,000 precious stones. The pagoda is part of a complex with 36 other pagodas and temples. The site open every day from 06:00 to 20:00 and admission costs $5 USD.

According to legend Shwedagon Pagoda was established during the life of the Lord Gautama Buddha. The Lord Buddha is believed to have given 8 of his hairs to merchants from Myanmar who were visiting India. The merchants brought hairs back to the local King, who built the original pagoda to house the hairs. Some historians and archaeologists, however, date the time of construction as in the 6th Century.
