Review:

Situated roughly halfway between Mandalay and Bagan, Monywa is a bustling trade center on the Chindwin river. Two large pagodas are located in the center of the city, and there are several more notable temples located several miles outside of the city. Other points of interest in the city and the surrounding area include the bustling markets, the riverside park, and the Phowintaung and Shwebataung Caves. Most people stop in Monywa on their way between Mandalay and Bagan, but it's also an ideal starting point for anyone interested in taking a boat down the river to the villages in the north. Monywa
