Dame Traveler @freeilli ・・・ Golden rock must

Golden rock must be on your Myanmar wish list if you decide to travel there. First of all it is one of the most authentic places, since really really tourists decide to invest a couple of days to get there, but the overall experience will pay this out. Not only you you will have the chance to immerse yourself in the typical cultural Burmese atmosphere, but also to understand the spirituality of Buddhism (and let’s be honest, the view form there, especially during sunset, is to die for). Some of you will now ask me if this rock is real of what is the trick. There is actually none: the rock stands on the edge of the mountains at 1,100m and, according to the legend, it was brought here by the king from the bottom of the sea to contain one of the hair of Buddha, offered to a local hermit called Thaik Tha. The rock shape should resemble the hermit’s head, this is why the pagoda was named Kyaiktiyo meaning "temple upon a hermit's head". The strand of hair made the rock stand still and prevented it from falling off.

The Kyaiktiyo Pagoda is one of the most important pilgrimage destination for Buddhists, so it will always be packed with pilgrims who usually spend a full night there to participate to evening and morning prayers. The rock is covered with the gold leaf, that just male pilgrims can deposit on the rock. Don hesitate to DM me if you need any traveling tip to get there.

Sorria, você está na Bahia! 🇧🇷

Salvador da Bahia was named the first capital of Brazil. Once the magnificent capital of Portugal’s New World colony in 1594, today Salvador is the pulsating heart of the country’s Afro-Brazilian community. Pelourinho (picture here) the historic center of Salvador got its name from the main square where slaves and criminals were once punished. In 1985, UNESCO named the Pelourinho a World Heritage site.

The cobblestone streets are like a living museum of 17th- and 18th-century, from its history, architecture and many churches. Wild festivals happen frequently, with drum corps pounding out rhythms against the backdrop of colonial buildings almost daily. In fact, there’s no other place in the world where the culture of those brought as slaves from Africa has been preserved as it has been in Salvador – from music and religion to food, dance and martial-arts traditions. #brazil #dametraveler #dametravelerbrazil #bahia #salvadorbahia
