Yangon: Karaweik Hall & Kandawgyi Lake

Large hall in the shape of mythological Karaweik Lake. From a distance the Karaweik Hall looks like a huge golden barge floating on Kandawgyi Lake, glittering in the sun.

The Karaweik Hall was completed in 1974, its design based on the Pyi Gyi Mon Royal Barge. In the old days this barge was used by Burmese Kings to travel around the Kingdom. Today it is a renovated large restaurant.Läs mer
