This river is a testimony to Myanmar's past, springing from Himalayan glaciers and flowing freely for about 2,200 kilometers through the country towards the Indian Ocean. The rulers of medieval Bagan would almost likely recognize its riverside life today with its ox carts and many-tiered pagodas and teak temples.
