A mini Bagan without all the tourists. Love love this place. Hard to get to but once there it’s all your. Just you and 800 year-old temples and stupas. Can’t imagine that this will stay off the tourist pipeline much longer but until then. One of my favs in all of all Myanmar.

If you are interested in a typical village with a mass of old pagodas and ruins in the center, it's worth going there. Of course, don't expect a collection of pagodas like Insein or Kakku, but the place is untouched, quiet and you'll walk around in silence.
Don't miss the old wodden monestary around the corner. I had a nice chat and some shared cigarettes with the abbot who was excited too meet foreigners.
If you like to interact with the people try to find a driver speaking English who can translate for you. Driving is 1,5 hours from Monywa. When I visited this summer, the road was under bad condition but under construction, at the moment best was going there by motorbike or tuk-tuk.
If you stay in Monywa, it's a nice half-day trip to the countryside.

We really enjoyed wandering around these ancient pagodas! They're in a very natural condition and you feel like you could be Lara Croft or Indiana Jones discovering some ancient temples! A great place to visit for some wonderful photos

A remote village which could be accessed by a car or Tuk-Tuk with 2 hours' drive. There is a small area in the village with beautiful pagoda ruin. It is definitely worth a day trip.

A Nyeint and A Myint Villages were famous attraction among the foreign travelers. Later, it was little-known and out of reach for travelers. We can see many ruined pagodas, brick monuments, mural paintings and wooden monastery. We love really this place. This historic site is really precious for observing heritages. Now, it is popular again among the historians, students and travelers. The residents in the village are very friendly and we can touch with very typical local lives at Anyar Region.

Went to this village by motorbike. Because they are recontructing the road it's very dusty. You can take another road, this is a longer distance, but shorter in time becaused it's paved.
The temples are very beautiful. Really like that it is not that restored. Loved the beautiful old mural paintings in one of the temples. We were the only ones there.

The place reminds very much Indein Pagoda near Inle lake . Same type of architecture. It doesn't look maintained, what I found interesting are the paintings on the wall in one of the pagodas , just beautiful.
Takes about 30-40 minutes from the by motorbike .

Peaceful place, friendly locals, great for someone who loves exploring things by themselves. Beware of snakes though they are rare to encounter.

It was painful getting there, nearly two hours one way from Monywa on bumpy road. They were repairing parts of the road after the floods so we were stuck behind trucks for some way. I think a car would have been worse because it's a thin causeway all the way with lots of motorbike traffic. Towards the end we had doubts whether we should have come. But the site is quite amazing, crumbling pagodas, jungle, statues, grazing cows, busy but peaceful village all mixed together. We were glad we went. Apart from wandering the ruins and looking at village houses there's not much to do. We spent 90 mins there. It would be great to have a interpreter there to chat to people. The hotel quoted us 30K/40K kyat for tuk tuk/car, but we negotiated with a driver we met at the bus station for half as much.
