In Myanmar, transport services are being arranged with the cooperation of the private sector aimed at ensuring smooth and peaceful transportation of tourists visiting our country.

One of the special services for the tourists is a riverine cruise. A riverine cruise by Min Kyan Sit is being arranged for holidaymakers from Mandalay to Mingun, where the World famous Pahtodawgyi and the World's largest ringing bell are situated.

Cruising along Ayeyarwaddy River, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery and the peace and serenity of the Sagaing hills.

After traveling 11 kms up-river from Mandalay, we come to the Mingun Pahtodawgyi on the Western bank of the Ayeyarddy River. It is huge and can be seen from a distance.

King Bodaw Phaya had it build over 200 years ago. It was to be a 500 feet high pagoda but was stopped at 162 feet. Its girth is about 450 square feet; it was just the base of the throne. Had it been completed, it would have been an amazing and huge pagoda. Now 50 metres high, it is perhaps the largest mass of bricks used in the world.

You can go up the Pahtodawgyi and enjoy a bird's eye view of the Ayeyarwddy River and the MinWin hills.

The Mingun Bell, the world's largest ringing bell weighs over 90 tons. After traveling around Mingun, on the way back, the private tour company serves their guests with Myanmar Cuisine and regional snacks.
The trip from Manalay to Mingun is full of interesting sights which you will surely enjoy and remember for a long, long time.
