Old Bagan, Myanmar, is an ancient city boasting thousands of well-preserved temples and pagodas scattered across a vast plain. Exploring this archaeological zone typically requires several days, with options ranging from solo explorations via e-bike or bicycle to guided tours offering deeper historical context. Accessibility can be challenging due to uneven terrain and sandy roads, though some sites offer easier access. The dry season (November to May) is the ideal time to visit, avoiding the heavy rains of the monsoon season. Expect to pay entrance fees for the archaeological zone, and factor in costs for transportation, accommodation, and food. The experience offers breathtaking sunrises and sunsets over a landscape steeped in history and spirituality.
