Trip Description

Located about 160 km from Yangon, Kyaikhtiyo is the largest domestic tourism center. It stands on a gilded boulder precariously perched on the edge of the hill over 3615 feet above sea level. There are many legends about the pagoda and Nat (Spirit Gods) shrines along the way from the base camp to the pagoda. There is also a popular belief that a person gains in wealth every time he climbs the hill. It is a test of one’s endurance and is very exhilarating once a person has reached the summit. Kyaikhto Hotel located on the hillside is the full view of the pagoda. The season of pilgrimage is from October to May. Our coach has to stop at Kinpun Basecamp. From there we have to use an open truck which is normally used for hilly track up to the mountain too. To Yathae Hill, you can also reach by trekking from the base camp. Porters and palanquins are available to carry luggage and pilgrims who are too old or weak.
