Yangon
(formerly Rangoon) is the largest city in Myanmar (formerly Burma). A
mix of colonial architecture, modern high-rises and gilded Buddhist
pagodas define its skyline. Its famed Shwedagon Paya, a huge, shimmering
pagoda complex, draws thousands of pilgrims annually. The city's other
notable religious sites include the Botataung and Sule pagodas, both
housing Buddhist relics.
