I have been a bit lazy over the last week and been lying in most days whilst Rich gets up to fly so today I decided to take an E Bike & visit some temples. Joined by Richard Woolnough we headed off to explore.
The first one we visited is Dhammayangyi and this is the largest temple in Bagan, this was built by King Narathu who came to be on the throne by killing his father & brother, it was never completed as the king was killed before completion (see I did listen during our tour)!!
We then went onto Dhammayazika which is a lovely golden topped temple with gold Buddha's inside and then our last one to visit was Shwezigon!
We met some really lovely people (sellers) at the temples we visited, and we spent a lot of time chatting to them and they were kind enough to tell us more about the temples. Richard also ended up buying 4 sand paintings to take home with him!
Comedy moment of the day out once again goes to clumsy me..... I managed to roll back on my e bike down a ditch and fall off, I was laughing so much that I couldn't pick up my bike so a local had to help me!! Typical me! But overall a fun day!
