Yangon

Yangon, formerly known as Rangoon, is the largest city in Myanmar and a bustling hub of culture, history, and commerce. With its rich heritage and diverse population, Yangon offers a wealth of photographic opportunities for both amateur and professional photographers. From the iconic Shwedagon Pagoda, one of the most sacred Buddhist sites in the world, to the vibrant street markets and colonial-era architecture, Yangon is a city that never fails to inspire. Other popular photography locations in Yangon include the Sule Pagoda, the Botataung Pagoda, and the Yangon Circular Train, which offers a unique perspective on the city's daily life and culture.
