One of the most devout Buddhist countries in the world, Myanmar is home to an incredible amount of Buddhist temples. In the region of Bagan, over 10,000 temples were built between the 9th and 13th century alone!

Today, thousands remain, forming one of the richest archaeological sites in Asia, and becoming a major tourist attraction in the process. In 2016, photographer Dimitar Karanikolov visited Myanmar, taking hundreds of breathtaking aerials across Bagan, Yangon and Mandalay.

He shared a series of images on Behance, some of which you can find below. For more, check out Dimitar’s work at the links below.
