Shwedagon pagoda in Yangon in 1950's. It is one of the highlights of all package tours to Yangon. The 98 meters (326 feet) high pagoda built on a hill is believed to be one of the earliest pagodas of Gautama Buddha era. It had been built on the Singottara hill more than 2500 years ago.

he inspiration: I saw this photo in v.5 of the 'Lands and Peoples' series as a kid. I had no idea of the actual size of the pagoda - 368 feet high - or that it was covered in gold leaf! Kipling called it "the winking wonder". I call it THE GOLDEN 'GOON!
