Bagan
Bagan (formerly Pagan) is an ancient city located
in the Mandalay Region of Burma (Myanmar). From
the 9th to 13th centuries, the city was the
capital of the Kingdom of Pagan, the first
kingdom to unify the regions that would later
constitute modern Myanmar. During the kingdom's
height between the 11th and 13th centuries, over
10,000 Buddhist temples, pagodas and monasteries
were constructed in the Bagan plains alone, of
which the remains of over 2200 temples and
pagodas still survive to the present day.
Anawrahta's Palace was rebuilt in 2003 based on
the extant foundations at the old palace site.
But the palace above the foundation is completely
conjectural.

The Pagan Empire collapsed in 1287 due to
repeated Mongol invasions (12771301) Bagan,
located in an active earthquake zone, had
suffered from many earthquakes over the ages,
with over 400 recorded earthquakes between 1904
and 1975. Today, 2229 temples and pagodas remain.
Bagan today is a main tourist destination in the
country's nascent tourism industry, which has
long been the target of various boycott
campaigns. The majority of over 300,000
international tourists to the country in 2011 are
believed to have also visited Bagan.
