Day 7 - Mandalay
We rode a boat to the town of Mingun after a delicious buffet style breakfast at the hotel. The main attractions here are the Mingun temple, Mingun Bell, and the Hsinbyume pagoda (yes - more temples!) Our guide also took us to visit a local elderly home. It's funded straightly on donations and it's completely free to the tenants. Even though it might be a scam, we still left a donation. (Let karma take care of the rest.)

Myanmar / Thailand Trip Recap (5)
Day 6 - Mandalay
We left Bagan in the morning and boarded a plane to Mandalay. (Air Mandalay operate a daily route from Yangon - Bagan - Mandalay - Heho - Yangon. Our departure time gets later and later with each city we visit.) Instead of a 10+ hours bus ride through the mountains, we arrived in Mandalay after 45 minutes.
