 The day before, I was so happy viewing Bagan from the watch tower, I could not believe my eyes!! But today was even more amazing!!! Viewing the city on a hot air balloon!!  It was my first time and Wow what an amazing experience! The city is so beautiful! It’s fields and temples! We already saw all 2,000+ temples and stupas haha!! The villagers are organized in one area so it’s not scattered. A MUST SEE!!!!!!!! These are just photos but actually being there is a million times better. Peaceful except for the flames of the balloon that comes every now and then – Blessed a million folds!!!!!Bagan From a Hot Air Balloon (13)
