Shwezigon Pagoda is one of Myanmar's most revered and historically significant Buddhist sites, located in the Bagan region. This golden pagoda was originally built in the 11th century by King Anawrahta to house a relic of the Buddha. The pagoda’s massive golden stupa and its surrounding smaller stupas create an awe-inspiring sight. It is also a pilgrimage site for Buddhists, particularly during the annual Shwezigon Pagoda Festival, attracting visitors who come to admire its beauty and spiritual importance.
