The Golden Rock is easy to get to from Yangon

The not to rehash something already discussed, but the Golden Rock is one of the three major religious sites in Myanmar. It’s not to far from Yangon just a few hours to the southeast in Mon State. The Golden Rock is easy to get to from Yangon and you ride along a new highway most of the way so it goes smoothly. If you left early enough or if the bus was a direct bus, you could conceivably take a day trip to the Golden Rock. Most people like it in Myanmar tour.
Kyaiktiyo Pagoda (Golden Rock) is a pagoda built on top of a granite boulder, which seems to defy gravity as it seems it to fall down the hill at any moment. The pagoda is situated in Mon State, and is a well-known Buddhist pilgrimage site. The boulder is entirely covered by gold leaves pasted on by devotees. The legend says that it is a strand of Buddha's hair that keeps the pagoda balancing on the edge of the hill.

Getting to Kyaiktiyo is easy with the help of “Win Express” buses starting from the Highway Bus Station, also known as Aung Mindalar Bus Station. These buses will take you from the country’s capital to Kinpun and Kyaiktiyo. There are also pick-up trucks that could bring you all the way to Kinpun so that you can see the magnificent Golden Rock on your way there. The first trip usually leaves at exactly 6:30 a.m. and the buses travel at hourly intervals up to 2:30 p.m. You will pay 8,000K for the fare and the journey usually lasts for about 5 hours.
