    The replica of Shwedagon pagoda but built at a really nice scale. The roof inside is really beautiful and on a not so hot day you will love walking on the marble floors. There are lifts on all the corners if you don't want to climb. Also, you can find a few shopping options and eating spots which are rare in the city. Spare around 2-3 hours for a good visit.

    The Pagoda is magnificent. 98 meters tall makes this Pagoda just one meter shorter than the famous Shwedagon in Yangon. Almost no tourists when we visited, just a few locals. I recommend visiting Uppatasanti Pagoda if you come to the capital. Because there were almost no people and perfectly clean it made a stronger impression than Shwedagon.

    Exploring the Cultural Riches and Architectural Beauty of Uppatasanti Pagoda During my recent journey to Uppatasanti Pagoda, I was captivated by the cultural significance and architectural marvels that define this sacred place. Located in Naypyidaw, Myanmar, Uppatasanti Pagoda is not only a spiritual sanctuary but also a testament to the country's rich heritage. The first thing that struck me was the grandeur of the pagoda's design. Standing at 99 meters tall, it is an imposing structure with intricate details and gleaming white façades. The architecture seamlessly blends traditional Burmese styles with modern aesthetics, making it a symbol of Myanmar's past and present. As I explored the pagoda's grounds, I was greeted by friendly locals who shared stories about the history and customs associated with Uppatasanti Pagoda. Their warm hospitality and deep reverence for this place left a lasting impression on me. Inside the pagoda, the atmosphere was serene, with the scent of incense filling the air. I witnessed worshippers deep in prayer and meditation, a reminder of the spiritual significance of Uppatasanti Pagoda in the lives of the people. In conclusion, my visit to Uppatasanti Pagoda was a journey into Myanmar's cultural and architectural treasures, accompanied by the warmth of its people. It's a destination that not only offers architectural splendor but also a glimpse into the soul of this beautiful country.

    Very good charming, shining in Nay Pyi Taw. It is very large and tall. For getting up and down, many people use elevator. No entrance fee charge even for foreigners. Inside the pagoda on the wall there stories of Buddha life episodes. Good to visit. Local people go there to listen to monks teaching. Besides the pagod there is local market selling souvenirs.

    Neat replica of the swedagon pagoda. Cost $1,000 mmd per person to enter and they have longyi's available to use for free. Loved that you could go in the pagoda and see monks chanting and cleaning the Buddha. At least that's what I saw around 9:30am. Stones were still walkable but getting much hotter by 10:30am. Don't go mid day or it will be very hot on your bare feet. Elevators take you up to the viewing area.

    It´s nearly a same-size of Shwedagon pagoda in Yangon and stands 99 meters tall. Very quiet and very peaceful place.

    For all of the pagodas we visited in Myanmar, this was one of the best, even though it's only a replica of Shwedagon pagoda- Uppatasanti Pagoda was waaaay better! The lights at night is very beautiful too. On the road, you can already see a glimpse of it, that seems to invite you and visit the place! This is one of the best!!!!

    Many visitors to Myanmar are inclined to ignore Naypyidaw, the current capital, because it is new and still feels artificial, but if you happen to be there, don't skip Uppatasanti. The pagoda is a very impressive building that was inaugurated in 2009. As far as pagodas go, the date is impressive because it is recent, not the other way around. Instead of building a modern structure, the architects decided to replicate Yangon's Shwedagon, one of the most prominent pagodas in Myanmar. Because Naypyidaw is new and sparsely built, the location of Uppatasanti atop a small hill rewards visitors with open views of the surrounding area and an airy and relaxing feeling throughout their visit.
