The Bagan Plains are one of the richest archaelogical sites in Asia. The plain of Bagan is located on the eastern bank of Ayeyarwady River.
The Bagan Plains cover an area of 40 square kilometres. Within it are 2217 ancient stupas, caves and other ruins of the 11th-13th centuries. Architecturally two main types of buildings can be classified in Bagan - the solid stupas and the hollow temples.
It was here in Bagan that Buddhist was first introduced to Upper Burma. It was also here in Bagan that Myanmar art and architecture reached its peak.
