The Pink Dancer with Umbrella

The first think I said when I arrived Bagan was "It looks so much like Africa"...the landscape reminded me the Savanha of east Africa. But no. It is in Asia. Dry land dotted with hundreds of unique temples and stupas. When sun was going down in after noon I reached a temple where a group of local dancers and musicians where performing.

The Golden Buddha

The Ananda temple is one of the biggest and known temples in Bagan area. There are few amazing golden images of the Buddha in different positions (Mudras). I took photo of this one with no flash. Local monks also walk around.

Running from the Ox

I took an Ox carriage in Bagan. This boy was running trying to sell post cards. There was another carriage behind and he was afraid of the oxes so he was keep looking back. I took many photos of this boy.
