The 2500 year-old Shwedgaon Paya is the oldest Buddhist pagoda in the world.
Step inside and the first thing you will see is gold. Everywhere. Every spire, every rooftop, every detail is covered in gold.
Many kings and queens throughout Myanmar's history has donated pure gold of their body weight, depositing tons and tons of gold in the greatest golden monument on earth.
