This morning, our driver and guide will bring you up from your booked hotel in Mandalay. Then drive to Shwebo for around two hours, passing by the Irrawaddy River and the picturesque countryside. The fight to retake the country from the Mon began in this sleepy village, which served as Myanmar's capital in the eighteenth century.
You may have fun exploring the market while being greeted by friendly locals and seeing the primary agricultural items including rice and sesame along with the local business practices. Our next stop will be the golden and stunning Maw DawMying Pagoda, in which King Alaungpaya decided to launch his war against the Mon. Because of this, it is now well known as the “Wishing Ground”, according to local belief, which will bring good fortune and good health.
We will go to Kyauk Myaung hamlet in the late afternoon, which is located about 27 kilometers east of Shwebo. The pottery industry is headquartered in this village.
