Yangon
One of the typical places to eat in Myanmar.
Shwedagon Pagoda, the most important religious sight in Buddhism in Myanmar. Every Buddhist should visit this place once in lifetime.
Around the Pagoda there are special places for every day in the week. Buddhists are looking for the day they were born at (e.g. the "Saturday" temple) and praying there for luck.
On the weekday-place Aung San Suu Kyi is praying when she is coming to Shwedagon, there is a tv-camera installed to record the whole visit, so everybody can watch this happening.
