    Mandalay

    December 25, 2018 in Myanmar ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

    Instead of sleeping I just went straight to city. There is a big old palace in the middle of city, it's actually replica, but still fun to see. As a foreigner you can only see the palace. Next was Kuthodaw pagoda, so pretty with people taking photoshoots all over :) Continued to Mandalay Hill, a 30 minute walk up on stairs, lots of Buddha statues on the way. Had to pose for people like 15 times :) But they are so cute and what is my 15 seconds compared to make people smile 😊 Quite a view of the whole Mandalay from the top! Last stop was Mahamuni Paya with golden buddha statue where you can buy a golden leag and stick it on buddha. Didn't do that though.
    There was a Xmas party later at the hostel. I again met so many nice people, also brasilian guys from Bagan hostel. Then some girl, Lesley, heard I'm from Slovenia, she was there, so we talked and got invited to come along with her friend to - karaoke bar! SO MUCH FUN! We had our own room, 6 of us, singing like crazy to all kinds of songs. Got home at like 4am and had to navigate taxi driver how to get to the hostel. Classic 😊
    And Merry Christmas everyone!
