Where are they?
Bagan Archaeological Zone is in an area roughly 10km2 within Bagan's old city. The nearest town is Nyaung-U which is about 4km from the site itself. You can actually fly into Nyaung-U from Yangon (formerly Rangoon); it's just a 20 minute drive for here to Bagan.How can I see them?
The best way to see the temples of Bagan is to stay in Nyaung-U. Small group tours of Burma usually include two or three days in Nyaung-U. Groups can then visit the temples with a local guide with the option to return for an independent wander.Given the scale of the site, one of the most convenient ways to get around the forest-clad temple complex is by bicycle. Some tours provide a bike and route map as part of the experience; electric bikes may also be available. A dusty labyrinth of dirt tracks between the trees and temples makes cycling a really efficient and atmospheric way of getting around. Comfy clothes, sun protection (long sleeves, shades and sun cream) and bike helmets are all advisable.
