Of all Asia\u2019s fascinating temple complexes, few can match Bagan for sheer scale. The UNESCO-listed site boasts hundreds of temples and pagodas, most dating back centuries. While the ruins at Angkor in Cambodia are often hidden away amidst thick jungle, Bagan\u2019s mesmeric structures are laid out on a vast open plain, making for an inspirational sight. Guests who want to learn more about the origins and back-stories of Bagan\u2019s major sights will benefit from this immersive archaeology tour, conducted by an expert. The journey begins with a visit to an elevated temple with spectacular views over the surrounding plains, providing the perfect introduction to Bagan\u2019s scale and scope.\u00a0 Over the course of the day guests will be schooled in the area\u2019s lore \u2013 taking in highlights such as the murals of Upali Thein and the sites around the town of old Bagan.
