A temple that took my breath away, was Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, the capital of Myanmar. This pagoda is the most beautiful place I have been to in Myanmar. I even visited twice. The atmosphere at night was amazing. The illumination creates a glow that adds atmosphere to the whole place. The main stupa is the one you see on the photo. It is covered with gold plates and is decorated with precious stones. 5.448 diamonds in addition thousands of other stones. The pagoda is a jewel. The whole complex consists of the main stupa (on the photo) but also lots of smaller stupas, prayer halls, shrines etc. Devotees will offer flowers and light candles. A peaceful, spirituel place where you can spend hours. This photo is my entry to @photofeed contest @photofeed/photofeed-contest-cityscape-photography-round-90
