Nyaung Shwe

The old Shan Palace (which was the residence of the first president of Burma) houses so much of historical interest, including a genuine royal throne, as well as numerous, incredible photographs of the royal period. The town’s Ratanar Maung Aung temple is also not to be missed, with its wonderful collection of religious antiques. This town offers good value accommodation, and is a great place to start a bicycle tour around the lake or its surrounding villages.
