You would not say that Pathein is the fourth largest city of Myanmar; it feels like a relaxed river town where the people are among the friendlist of the country.
The late afternoon light gave the passers-by an even more beautiful glow, and accentuated their complexions. The street market and the position right on the river instantly made us doubt to stay longer in Pathein or stick to our original plans. The busy boat traffic shuttling people and their belongings up and down the Pathein river with the setting sun on the horizon behind the river was a great spectacle. Turning back, it was hard to miss the Shwenotkhtaw Pagoda, another example of an impressive golden stupa dominating the city skyline.
