Also known as Kandawgyi Nature Park, Kandawgyi Garden is a must-visit. The name of the garden, Kandawgyi, translates to ‘the great lake’. This is one of the favourite spots in the country; locals often come here to sit back and relax. The garden is quite spectacular and huge, spanning over 260 acres. In the middle of the garden is a serene lake, and surrounding the lake are trees that provide much-needed shade from the mid-day sun. You’ll discover some of the rare tropical flowers here. Whether you’re a family travelling together or a solo traveller, the garden offers something for everyone – there’s a play area for kids, and adults can indulge in some retail therapy at the many shops found here.
