Kyaiktiyo Pagoda (Golden Rock)
Mon State, Myanmar
The Kyaiktiyo Pagoda (Golden Rock) in Mon State, Myanmar, is one of the country’s most sacred Buddhist pilgrimage sites.
It is famous for a giant gold-covered granite boulder that appears to balance precariously on the edge of a cliff, with a small pagoda built on top. According to Buddhist tradition, the rock is held in place by a sacred hair relic of the Buddha enshrined within the pagoda.
Perched high on Mount Kyaiktiyo, the site attracts thousands of pilgrims and visitors each year who come to admire its unique appearance, spiritual significance, and stunning mountain views.
