The famous legendary Kyaikhtiyo pagoda is also well known as Golden Rock. It is located in the Mon State. It is the largest domestic tourism centre located about 160 km from Yangon. Now, it is accessible by car. Kyaikhtiyo Pagoda stands on a gold gilded boulder precariously perched on the edge of the hill over 3,615 feet (1,100m) above sea-level. There are many legends about the pagoda and Nat (spirits) shrines along the 11km uphill hike from the base camp to the pagoda. There is also a popular belief that one will gain more wealth every time he climbs the Hill. The pagoda itself is only about 15 feet high, but it is a breath taking scene to see it in reality.
