MY HOME TOWN

Sagaing is located on the western bank of the Ayeyarwaddy or Irrawaddy river, occupying a scenic and picturesque
spot thereof.
It is rather cool, quiet and sedate, provoking Buddhist religious spirit and meditation on the nearby Sagaing Hill, where one could take refuge. It is profusely dotted with manifold Buddhist monasteries, institutions and nunneries to which Buddhist devotees throng during the Full Moon of Tazaungmon (October/November), when the weather is clean and clear.

Buddhist devotees offer monk’s robes and other alms during this period. Kyaswa Monastery provides “Annual Meditation Practice and Training”, for foreign Yogis as an annual feature in January. There is a major monastic hospital for the members of the Buddhist religious Order.
