Overview of your Yangon tour:

Yangon, formerly known as Dagon, is the most cosmopolitan city in Myanmar with a population of 5 million people. Yangon literally means 'End of strife'. It was founded by the king from upper Myanmar in the year 1752 and changed from Dagon to Yangon. When the British annexed Myanmar (Burma) in 1885, they renamed it as Rangoon because they find it hard to pronounce it properly as locals. So there are some colonial buildings here which are very old. It was the capital city until 2005. Now the government shifted its capital to Naypyidaw (the current capital). But Yangon remains as a very important commercial city. The most fascinating thing in Yangon is the holiest pagoda 'Shwedagon' which is believed to have been built 2600 years ago which is also the land mark of Myanmar (Burma). Note: Travelers are to ask question Before booking.
