Travel Guide Pa-Auk Tawya

This small pagoda with free entrance is for some people even more sacred than the Golden Rock. Based on the same principle of balance on a hair of Buddha as the latter, it is composed of three rocks placed somehow on top of each other. The route to the summit can be quite strenuous, as it is done in dump trucks with wooden planks in the back, leaving too little leg room if you are over 1.60 m tall. An ordeal for some, but worth living through! The view is very beautiful once you reach the top. A bus connects Mawlamyine to the starting point of the pick-up trucks. It is possible to lodge for free on the spot, with the pilgrims. Meals are also free, but don't hesitate to make a donation, it will always be welcome in the holy places
