Mandalay was truly a sight to behold starting with the Royal Barge. Palace and Golden Palace Teak Monastery to the World’s Largest Book – a plantation of white stupas which contained 774 marble slabs with all the Buddha’s teachings inscribed by 2,400 monks.
Mingun – another ox cart day for me to ring the “largest working bell in the world”; view the unfinished Bodawpaya Pagoda, the workd’s largest single mass brick building; and marvel at the “wedding cake” Temple. Of course. Kathy climbed barefoot to the top of both structures.
