Minglabar from Myanmar

We spent a couple of days in Yangon, Myanmar. We went on a bus a visited a market in town. We bought "longyis".(The traditional  outfit of Myanmar).  It is like a long skirt. It is what most men wear here.  We visited the Shwedagon Pagoda. It is like a large temple. The pagoda is covered in gold. It is really cool.  

Most people in Myanmar believe in Buddha. One of the days we went on a train with a guide.  The train went all around the city in a big circle. We got to see what it was like to live in Yangon.   We went to a big market where they sell lots of fruits, vegetables and fish. There were lots of people and in some places it smelled really fishy. 

We also visited the zoo. We got to see see lots of animals. We saw 3 white tigers and some hippos. We got to feed some elephants.There are wild elephants living in Myanmar, but they are endangered. They say there are only 2 thousand wild elephants left. There are some people that are  trying to help them.
