Pagodas in Mogok
Mogok is normally closed to foreigners, but because we were a dhamma group going to the opening ceremony for a new meditation centre we were allowed in.

Myanmar - Golden Land
Myanmar, previously known as Burma, is also called the land of gold. In January 2003 I went on a yatra with my Vipassana meditation teacher S N Goenka and about another 500 of his students. This is a pictorial account of that trip, which was a truly wonderful experience.
