Probably one of the weirdest things I have seen in Myanmar, the snake pagoda houses three fat pythons who are worshipped as sacred animals.
There is a never ending amount of temples and pagodas in Myanmar, but probably the weirdest one, and one of the most special pagodas, is Yadana Labamuni Hsu-taungpye Paya. That is the official name, but it has become widely known as the Snake Pagoda, or Hmwe Paya. In the 1970s, three pythons came into the pagoda and curled up next to the Buddha image. They never left, and are being taken care of as vital part of the pagoda. Easily reached from Mandalay, the Snake pagoda is in Paleik and can be easily visited on a morning.
