“Did the monks ever fly from Chan Thar Gyi Chan Thar Ya Pagoda?” a young boy once asked his grandfather. The old man smiled, his eyes twinkling as he gazed at Chan Thar Gyi Chan Thar Ya Pagoda. “Not quite flying,” he chuckled, “but they certainly had the best view in Mogok.” The Chan Thar Gyi Chan Thar Ya Pagoda sits atop Pagoda Hill in the Shan Taw Quarter of Mogok. It isn’t just a place of worship. It’s a beacon, visible from all corners of the valley. And it’s a viewpoint, offering a panorama that truly makes you feel like you’re on top of the world.
