I've visited New Bagan in Myanmar during the civil war in 2024. This town is located near the ancient city of Bagan, offers a unique blend of history and culture. Known for its rich heritage, New Bagan is home to numerous pagodas and temples, making it a must-visit for those interested in Myanmar’s ancient architecture. Tourists often search for "Bagan temples," "Bagan travel guide," and "Bagan hotel recommendations" to plan their visit. New Bagan also provides a more modern experience compared to Old Bagan, with local markets and restaurants that showcase Burmese cuisine. Travelers looking for "Bagan tours" and "Bagan balloon rides" will find New Bagan a perfect starting point. Despite the challenges in Myanmar, New Bagan remains a testament to the resilience and enduring beauty of its people and culture.
🌟 Want to help me to help others?
My mission is to make more people aware of the situation while trying to help as much as I can. Up until today, not one NGO can be transparent about the activities they are doing within Myanmar, so I had to be creative how we can help some of the people in need. We can not stop the war, but we can help people in need who are effected by the war.
