MoreOne of the biggest reclining Buddha images. Worth to visit!
I thought the reclining buddha in Thailand was the longest but this one really exceeded my expectation. I like the Buddhas feet
MoreGood place to visit. Long and huge reclining Buddha statue. Many smaller statues with different Buddha positions. Unfortunately I visited during maintenance of the statue when it was completely covered with wooden frames. So have a look at the rare pictures.
MoreA giant contemporary, laying Buddha out of central Yangon. Barely any tourists as you can pretty much only get here by car. Impressive site but the protective structure obscures the view of the Buddha itself
MoreI really loved this place as they did not charge us entry fee even though we were foreigners, as all other pagodas charge entry fee from foreigners
MoreThe Buddha statue is absolutely immense! I have not expected the sheer magnitude of it. Worth a visit for sure.
MoreOne of the best reclining buddha temples that I have seen. there are Monday to Sunday buddha that buddhists can bathe them according to their own day of birth. There are nice little buddha statues at the back that my mom spent time to bathe them one by one😳👍
MoreVery impressive. For those curious to know about Buddhism, it offers lots of text to read through as you walk through the Pagoda. The reclining figure of Buddha is 66 meters in length.
MoreThe place is a must visit in Yangon, the whole temple just radiates peace and calmness, the statue of sleeping Buddha is just serene and beautiful
MoreAmazingly large statue of Buddha laying down. Observation platform by Buddhas feet so you can see the statue from a different perspective. Must see location.
MoreLarge scale lounging Buddha in central Yangon. Much larger than the one in Bangkok. Easy taxi ride away from downtown Yangon. Worth a visit during your stay. Only taxes about 20 minutes to tour the whole Pagoda. There are other cultural sites nearby as well that you can string together to make an afternoon of it.
MoreVery good placeVery quietNo entrance feeRelated to past
A must visit if you are in Yangon. A very beautiful and serene place. Got many insights about buddhas life. It has largest reclining buddha statue. This place also have couple of souvenir shops in front campus. There is no entry fees.
MoreStunning huge statue of sleeping Lord Buddha,adorned on all sides by smaller statues. Must see the carvings at the feet of the huge statue
MoreOur first stop after we arrived at Yangon airport. No entrance fee, but it cost us 1,000 kyat (over the counter feeto have our shoes store and 7,000 kyat for (2set of flowers for prayer offering.
MoreThe Chauk Htat Gyi Pagoda, a hugely ,beautiful reclining Pagoda in Yangon is known for its enormous 65 meters longs is a place that recommended to visit for pray.it’s so impressive temple.
MoreVery beautiful reclining Buddha. Not too crowded. But still under renovation! Its my 2nd time to this temple though.
MoreI really liked this pagoda ad it was the first time I head ever been inside the dome. Inside the dome were many places where people could meditate. There were also some very good explanations about the construction of the temple and what every party of the temple meant. There was also a very large diamond on display which goes at the top of the spire
MoreBesides the massive reclining Buddha... Ive never seen such a great pictorial timeline about His life. The descriptions are in English too! Another must stop attraction in Yangon.
MoreThat reclining buddha is really marvelous. This temple was the first place I visited after landing in Burma and i was totally in awe of this temple and the Buddha.
MoreBeautiful space. Easily accessible.Reminder for westerners, it is a temple and so there are certain dress requirements.The Buddha is huge. Much bigger than I expected.There is a raised viewing platform to see a different perspective.It does get quite hot, so morning might be better
MoreBeen there after sunset...very calm and quit atmosphere with a nice brise to relax after walking through the busy streets of Yangon.The Bug Buddha statue is amazingly well done - from head to feet. Absolutely worth going.
MoreHuge and Elegant reclining Buddha image.Open everyday.Free entrance fee.
Peaceful place to worship and to meditate.Sometimes,you can see some Myanmar traditional ceremornies.Most foreign visitors I seen were from Thailand .There is also a wide and clean public toilet a little walk from there.I love this cool and peaceful place.
MoreA reclining Buddha with a benign and compassion expression that is captivating. Ornate headgear. Detailed depiction of the divine marks on the feet. Multiple statues of Buddha in various poses, each of great significance. A series of wall paintings describe the life of Buddha,along with write ups on each event.
MoreBe carefully if you enter from the back side!!. We entered the temple from the back side which is quite different. A man trying to ‘help us’ led us to a ‘monk’ who wanted us to go inside this dark house and kept telling us that the entrance was in his ‘dark place’. Also was asking to leave our shoes with him, DONT FALL FOR THIS. There is stairs on the left so just ignore them. Also don’t leave your stuff with other people. Beautiful place
MoreThis is our first stop on the first day in Yangon. Seeing around inside the pagoda and feel so relaxed, there are also souvenir shops outside the pagoda. Spend 15-30 minutes here to absorb the enlightment.
MoreA temple that houses a massive reclining buddha statue. The statue itself is 66 meters long and is a wonder to behold. However at the time of writing this review, the statue was covered in scaffolding as renovation was in progress.
MoreNice place and quiet place. Large buddha image in myanmar.
Amazing big Buddha. Unfortunately they are doing the repainting work. Entry is free, and you have to take off your shoe right at the entrance. Great to know the 108 distinguishing marks.
MoreI think this is the third biggest reclining Buddha in the world.Currently it is being renovated. Worth a wait (if you are able to do sountil this is completed before visiting.
MoreIf you think the Shwedagon Pagoda is too crowded, this "Chauk Htat Kyi Pagoda" or "Reclining Buddha" will be different for you. Although there is no long staircase to walk here, this Pagoda has a spacious car parking with peaceful green environment.Being the biggest reclining Buddha statue in Myanmar, the statue is currently under renovation.Its a great place to spend some of your time to enchant and offer your prayers.P.S: I saw some of the reviews mentioning this Reclining Buddha as "female Buddha". That is NOT TRUE, guys. There is such a thing like female Buddha although Im not sure if the word "female" has different usage here. Literally, Buddha was under "male" category.
MoreStunning reclining Buddha statue inside a large sheltered building. This is not much crowded as other famous pagodas in Yangon. No entrance fee (as I was not charge for entering the premises). The day I went, statue was re painting. Hence I couldnt see the real view of the Buddha statue. This is a must visit in Yangon located in shwegondine road.
MoreWhat an amazing Reclining Buddha... Unfortunately it is having restoration work done to it so will be amazing when its completed in a few months. Some other great Buddhas to see and well worth the trip to it when you are in Yangon
MoreUnder construction during this period Jun-2018.It’s a giant Buddha lying there absolutely bigger than Buddha in Thailand.Do acknowledge that there will be “one local tour guide “ that he would led you to show you around the temple that he is the owner of that Mental School. He will ask for donation for his uncles and the school and himself.He is actually nice but just ask for donation and he love to share information with you.
MoreThe biggest reclining Buddha in Yangon. Its one of the most famous Buddha image in Myanmar. Worth to visit.
MoreIt’s a must to see while you are in Yangon. It’s beautiful and the reclining Buddha inside the temple really deserves a visit! It’s not crowded and try to dress modestly. Cover your shoulders and legs! Try to respect this sacred place and enjoy the beautiful feet with many meanings and stroll around and be amazed by different Buddha hands posing!
MoreMain attraction is the Giant buddha statue in the middle. Surrounded by small statues all around the place. I didnt hire a guide but would be nice to have one around if you really want to know more of the history.
MoreAmazing with the big Buddha. If you come to Myanmar, you must visit here.
Kyaukhtatgyi Pagoda aka Chauk Htat Gyi Pagodais famed for the enormous 65-meter long sleeping Buddha, one of the largest in Myanmar. What impresses me is also the 108 distinguishing marks on both the Buddhas soles of and the explanations in English. It was indeed a good learning experience.
MoreThe huge female buddha ive ever seen. If youre in yangon you have to going here. Near from swedagon pagoda, so you can visit 2 places in one day. Free admision, you have take off your shoes when entering...Some shops available in here.
MoreVery long reclining Buddha. Eyes are made of glass as they are so shiny, very nice. Not so many tourists. Note : Must pay for mobile phone camera entry.Worth a visit!
MoreThe size of this female Buddah is amazing. You can take photos from a high platform in located at the feet of the Buddah. You can also see the artist working on the high chairs. Note the different stages of making the chair too much labour goes into this work. There are alot of dogs and cats around but the place is clean. Worth a visit. No entry fees but donation is welcomed
MoreOne of the most beautiful attractions in Yangon although it is not as well known as reclining Buddhas in other cities. Well worth a visit especially during the week when it is quiet and is a very relaxing place just to hang out. It is also free to visit
