    The Shwedagon Pagoda, a glance at the light of faith for ten thousand years. Traveling to Mangshi, the Shwedagon Pagoda is definitely a stop not to be missed! It is like a bright pearl. It is located on the top of Leiya on the shore of Peacock Lake in the southeast of Mangshi. You can see it emitting a sacred light from afar, which is really super shocking! 🎫 The ticket is 40 yuan, and I personally think it is still very worthwhile. The entire scenic area is not large, so you can visit and take pictures in 1-2 hours. The building is full of strong Southeast Asian style, and the tower is said to be covered with 7,000kg of gold, and the golden light is dazzling under the sun, and you can make a blockbuster with any shot. Entering the hall, it is solemn and can accommodate 1,000 people, but you need to take off your shoes to enter, and those who are not dressed can't enter. 🌅 The observation deck on the west side of the scenic spot has a great view. Standing there, the whole Mangshi has a panoramic view and can overlook the mountains of Myanmar. If it is in the sea of clouds season (11-March), the clouds are lingering, it is really like a fairyland. ⚠️ Note: 1. Don't wear short skirts and shorts when you climb the tower, otherwise you have to spend 15-20 yuan to rent a yarn cage. It is recommended to bring your own long skirt in advance. 2. The scenic shuttle bus is 15 yuan/person. If you don't take the car, you have to climb the mountain for 40 minutes. You can choose according to your physical strength. 3. Don't buy the "Buddha card" of the hilltop vendors. It is said that many of them are wholesale goods in Yiwu. In short, the Shwedagon Pagoda is really a great travel experience. Whether it is to feel Buddhist culture or take pictures and punch in, it is very suitable. Highly recommend to everyone! #Hunda Shwedagon Pagoda #Mangshi Tourism #Travel Guide

    I was fortunate enough to take part in the Yunnan Cycling Race. The first stop was to climb the famous Menghuan Silver Pagoda. Cycling was really a different experience. There were trees and shady areas along the way, the air was great, and there were several great places to take photos and make business cards. The silver tower on the top of the mountain is so magnificent. It’s hard but definitely worth it.

    The "Tree-Encased Pagoda" is a traditional attraction in Mangshi, boasting remarkable beauty. The tree is hundreds of years old. A small bird, unable to digest a seed from the Bodhi tree, pulled it to the top of the pagoda. The seed then sprouted and grew, its roots weaving into the cracks of the pagoda's structure. Growing ever larger, it almost completely enveloped the pagoda. Because the Bodhi tree is considered sacred, it cannot be removed casually, ultimately creating the remarkable spectacle of the "Tree-Encased Pagoda." The "Tree-Encased Pagoda" has undergone numerous restorations, the most recent of which included the reconstruction of the four surrounding pagodas and four mythical beasts, the reinforcement of the octagonal Sumeru pedestal, and the repainting of the exposed Buddha niche. The newly renovated "Tree-Encased Pagoda" is poised to contribute significantly to Mangshi's cultural and tourism development.

    It is worth going here. 1 From the top of the mountain, children like to explore caves. 2 Although there are many caves in Yunnan, this kind of various categories have concentrated, small and exquisite. This is the first one. 3 There is also a glass bridge hanging outside to take pictures. It is a very worthwhile attraction. I personally think it is more fun than the net red attractions, I am very recognized, I think 7 points are there
