Of course, the main reason to visit Bagan is to spend time exploring the temples and pagodas that rise majestically from the plain that stretches to the horizon. Bagan is known for its views of the rooftops of endless temples under the rays of sunrise and sunset, but the inside of temples and pagodas is also worth a look. Visiting all the temples is a genuine experience but seeing it from a distinct perspective is something else. Since there are more than 2,000 Buddhist temples and pagodas scattered throughout Bagan, it is impossible to see them all in a few days. If you are still overwhelmed by all the pagodas that are too many to see, we really recommend taking the Bagan Pagodas and Temples E-Bike Tour or the Old Bagan Plains Tuk Tuk Tour. The fantastic sights of Bagan are easy to explore on a bike, while hot air balloon rides give you a breath-taking view of the amazing number of temples in the Mandalay region of Myanmar. Since climbing the temples is no longer allowed, a hot air balloon ride would be the best choice for breath-taking sunrise views in Bagan. If you are planning to fly in a hot air balloon, sunrise hot air balloon rides are extremely popular in Bagan and are just as delightful to watch as hot air balloons flying over your temples. Hot Air Ballooning Temples from Above A hot air balloon ride is without a doubt the best way to see the thousands of temples scattered across the plains of Bagan and provide an unforgettable experience. You will be at an altitude of 2000 feet where you can see the beauty of approximately 2200 temples. From the top of Htilominlo Temple, you will have an unobstructed view of the landscape without climbing remarkably high, which should allow you to see the silhouettes of the temples as the sun sets behind the Bagan plains. Steps are carved into the temple which then lead to five terraces that end at the top of a large stupa and from here you can enjoy a panoramic view of Bagan. Unlike the popular pagodas in the main area of Bagan, you can also stop at one of the riverside temples for a different view from the usual ancient ruins. You may know the famous city of Bagan in Myanmar from its ancient temples, but there are so many amazing things you can experience in Bagan outside of the pagodas. Tour of Historical Temples It is understood that the most interesting aspect of the famous city of Bagan in Myanmar is the exploration of the thousands of ancient temples and pagodas scattered over a wide area along the Ayeyarwaddy River.
