    A very beautiful hill that is well worth the visit at night or during sunset. You get a very beautiful view of the city itself. Sunset was also incredibly beautiful.

    Definitely the best place to visit in Mandalay, there are also other attractions like the Place and other pagodas, but considering the spot and the view it's definitely the one that you should visit if in Mandalay. Remember to bring disinfectant tissues to clean your feet after the visit!

    Magnificent panoramic outlook over the surrounding lowlands, especially around the golden hour and under a slightly hazy sky.

    It is a very beautiful place. Like every other monastery that you visit, shoes or slippers have to be taken off. It is rather crowded during the sunset. There arw many Burmese kids who are very friendly and can't wait to practice their english with you. However it was worth it.

    Famous among locals and foreigners. Have to travel in the back of lorry. There are so many bends in this road. You can see whole Mandalay from this location. There is a temple built in the top of the Mandalay Hill. 👍💪👍

    From memory, as we were told at the entrance, it is about 1700 steps to the top but this made the climb all the more worthwhile! The view is spectacular right across Mandalay. The cost of entry was tiny although they could have been a little more transparent about it. There are benches at intervals for those that need a rest on the way up and drinks vendors selling water and other drinks. There are other interesting temples to see in the vicinity of Mandalay Hill after you've walked back down. If you want to learn about the country you're visiting, you have to make the effort! We recommend it.

    Very nice place to climb. It takes from 40 minutes to 1 hour approximately depends on you. There are many pagodas on the way and local markets where you can stop. The hike should be done barefoot so be prepared to end with your feet very dirty. The views from the top are very amazing and the atmosphere very good. If you are very tired to return by walk, you can take a local transportation that takes you to the bottom of the hill, the price is 1000 kyats per person.

    Холм, с которого весь город, как на ладони. Отличная смотровая площадка

    LOVED the whole experience - need to be there before sunrise. And climbing the steps up is a major workout 😲.

    I didn't see ever like this beauty hill in my life which is situated in Mandalay in mayanmer it's called Mandalay Hilli Area, most of the visitors are coming here to see natural beauty of mayanmer. it's a central position of mayanmer close to capital city. i like this city because it's natural beauty is no artificial.

    We were lucky enough to arrive in the city and to be transported right away in this amazing temple. The sunset light was the best thing and all the colours of the walls and decorations irradiated brightness and sparkles. The monks were super nice, they came talking to us (to practice their English as we later discovered), they were curious and kind. Amazing experience :-)

    Mandalay Hill is an awe-inspiring site that offers a profound spiritual and panoramic experience. The ascent up the 1,729 steps is rewarded with breathtaking views of Mandalay, the Ayeyarwady River, and the surrounding landscapes. Sunset at Mandalay Hill is particularly enchanting, with the sun casting a warm glow on the golden stupas. It's a place of tranquility, reflection, and stunning vistas, making it a must-visit attraction for travelers exploring Mandalay and seeking a deeper connection with Myanmar's heritage.

  • 4/5 Shubham S. 4 years ago on Google • 477 reviews
    Nice view, take some time. You can take an auto, bike up to the parking, then a couple of steps, literally 3 mins up from the parking. Avoid the escalator, it’s a tourist trap. The view needs some Time to soak in, the sunset if there’s no clouds luckily, is majestic. Can pass this place if you are short on time in Mandalay, else grab a coffee and chill

    혼자라서 해 지기전에 다녀왔는데도 좋았다. 현지인들이 뷰가 좋다고 추천 할만하다. 다른 무엇보다도 답답한 만달레이와 매연을 피해, 만달레이 힐에서 바라본 경치가 제일 좋았다.

    Spend 40 minutes climbing up stairs and you will be rewarded. The top of the hill boasts an incredible view and is also home to the Su Taung Pyae Pagoda. There are also plenty of temples on your way up the hill, in addition to beautiful adornments and decorations that will catch your eye. Leave around 2 hours for this activity and bring water!
