These temples in South East Asia - Myanmar date back around 2000 years.
These temples are in Bagan which at one time was a very powerful city, full of Kings that built around 7000 temples like the ones in this photograph.
Many of them became damaged by earthquakes and weather, but the people of Myanmar have been fixing the damaged ones. As you can see in this photograph, the one with the painted gold top has be rebuilt.
When I was on my vacation in Bagan, you could climb many of these temples to the top. When you looked across the horizon at these temples from a distance, they look like hundreds of thousands of ant hills. It is quite a sight to see.
If you ever plan a visit to Myanmar, make sure you go to Bagan. You will remember your visit and talk about it the rest of your life.
Have a wonderful weekend and remember, travel to new and exciting places!
