The temples of Bagan rise gracefully like haystacks out of the mist-
ancient and earth toned, thousands dot the landscape in the flat plain
of middle Myanmar.
Built
in the 10th and 13th century, they were constructed by a Buddhist king
in the town's heyday and then, for reasons unknown, abandoned for a
couple thousand years and regarded as a ghost town. Every pagoda is
slightly different, though Buddhas abound in most.
