Burmese Days - Yangon

Its been a while since the last update, so im just gunna update the blog with the places I've been with a snapshot of scenes that were generated there

[[Myanmar-(Burma)/Yangon]] - colonial capital of Burma/Myanmar - when we rocked out in the 1960s the Burmese decided not to bother with maintanence of the city and as such the city is a wonderful city of old buildings and rundown streets. It appears however that the junta has plenty of bunce to spend on nice pagodas.. the Sole pagoda is the heart of the city centre and the Shwedagon pagoda overlooks the city and is truly beautiful at night.. (see facebook) - The Shwedagon has a 76 carat diamond at the top of the umbrella!Impressive stuff!
