a huge temple complex in Rangoon. I don’t have much spirituality but I found the place very peaceful, and interesting for people feel at ease in these temples. As opposed to churches which are not cozy and not meant to be anyway, the temples invite to lie down and sleep, have a chat or a lunch with friends. Prayers are welcome too of course.
I said temples, indeed they are packed next to each other. Anybody with a bit of cash can have a temple built I was told. Same for statues of Buddha.
saffron is the main color for the monks. Remember the deadly saffron revolution some years ago.
the nuns sport pink robes with a bit of orange.
