    Kyaiktiyo Pagoda (The Golden Rock)

    KyaiktoMyanmar574 BCE / Traditional Mon Era

    Kyaiktiyo Pagoda, world-famous as the Golden Rock, is a miraculous gravity-defying Buddhist pilgrimage sanctuary perched on the edge of a cliff top in the Paung-laung mountain range of Mon State. The giant granite boulder, covered entirely in gold leaf applied by male devotees, balances precariously over a sheer 1,100-metre drop. Capped by a 7.3-metre stupa said to enshrine a sacred strand of the Buddha's hair, the mountain is steeped in ancient hermit legends, celestial spirit guardians (Nats), and mystical energetic phenomena.
