Central Myanmar has a lot of interesting places:

The enchanting 2200 temples of Bagan.

Ancient temples, stupas, payas and Buddha statues everywhere: in and around Mandalay (the so called ancient cities) and the Pindaya caves with no less then 8000 Buddha statues.

Taunggyi with its colorful hill tribe markets and Inle Lake, where people still live in harmony with nature, an oasis of peace and tranquility.
