While Yangon is no longer the capital of Myanmar, it remains the center for business even after the government of Myanmar moved the capital to Nay Pyi Taw. There are lots of places to visit in Yangon such as the grand Shwedagon Pagoda, the colonial building district, the bustling city center, Bogyoke Aung San Market, Kandawgyi Lake, and other notable temples.
No visitor to Yangon should miss the opportunity to explore China Town. The section between Latha Street and Pyay Road is recognized as China Town, however, the busiest sector is from Latha Road to Lanmadaw Road. There is a market called Than Zay at the corner of Lanmadaw & Anawyatha Road, along 17th Street. When to visit the China town in Yangon? It is best to visit in the morning hours between 7:00 and 10:30 am.
