Its a nice pagoda and if you go to it as a first one you will like it, but it is just nothing in comparison to Swedangon pagoda. Also be aware there are fake guides there who will try to rip you off and they are not official guides. No problem if you let them show you around, but be sure to have agreement on payment before starting.
Sule Pagoda is conveniently situated in the downtown of Yangon and easy to reach.The entrance ticket is 5k. You have to be modestly dressed and take your shoes off.Pagoda is a pretty large complex with several entrances. Its dedicated mainly to the Lord Gotama the Buddha, but not only.Improvements needed: better cleanliness, especially windows. Thank you
This is the one of the famous pagoda in my country with glorious history and the heart of the town.
This is a really impressive landmark in the city, especially in the evening lit up with the passing traffic. The detail up close is brilliant to admire but there’s also a fantastic viewpoint from the footway bridge up the road to the North. From here you can really see it stand out in the neighbourhood. Naturally there’s a lot of history to the pagoda as well as some interesting legendary tales, so it’s well worth entering and reading up about. Certainly one of my favourite spots in the city.
The crown of Yangon, this centre keeps the city together 24 hours a day! With different shades at dawn & dusk, the best view is around midnight, amidst zero traffic crowds, and just this pagoda all lightened and golden. It’s a small pagoda, but can’t be missed because all Yangon life is just around here..There’s an entrance fee, shoes can be carried in hands, it’s worth a 15 min tour
Located in the Center of downtown, this beautiful Pagoda is one of the must-go places in Yangon. Surrounded with the busy streets and shops but you will find it very peaceful and pleasant inside. It’s open from the early morning and closes around 10 or 11 pm. You can listen the chantings and spend your time meditating there.The entry is free for the locals and 4000 kyats for the foreigners. You can give your shoes for another 1000 kyats or just carry a plastic bag and take it with you. And beware of “helpers” who will happily guide you, but demand a good amount of money in the end of the story.
A beautiful reasonably large pagoda, but its real claim to fame is that it happens to be situated right in the middle of a huge bustling intersection in the heart of the city. The juxtaposition of the craziness of the streets of Yangon and the peaceful tranquility of the pagoda is really quite something to behold. The entrance fee was 5000 Kyats for foreigners which, to be honest, is probably a little steep, but its not every day you get a chance to check out a pagoda like this one, so in my opinion it is still worth it, but you only really need to come once, and it doesnt take that long to explore the vast majority of the area. People will come up to you offering tours, but I was perfectly content just wandering around on my own. No shoes or socks allowed, and its advisable to come equipped with pants that cover your knees. You can leave your bags and shoes at the entrances, they have lockers/cubbies for visitors.
Warning!! This place have tricky guys asking your money. Very nice pagoda not far from city hall and china town, Ive been there during the night, had to pay entrance 4000 kyatt or 3 dollars, flowers 2000 kyatt and there are the guys trying to talk and coming to be our guide without even asking, he bring me around to make activities for the pagoda and bring to the room that have the guy to explain too, after finish everything, they just asked for the money for 10000 so I have to give 10000 kyatt for the guy in the room and 3000 for the guy who bring me there, I am not sure for what they are doing there, I just wanted to warn everyone who want to go there, please be careful, dont let them lead your way and dont talk with them. Just go and explore on your own!
In addition to the pagoda, there’s a cool tree, a Buddha foot print and a bell you can ring for good luck. Upon arrival a guy came up to us and offered a tour, since he spoke good English, and after giving us a sample of the tour, we agreed to pay him 5k kyat for the tour (you could definitely get away with paying less). I’m happy we did the tour, he showed us a lot of details and explanations that we wouldn’t have otherwise noticed.
Dominates the centre of Yangon especially at night. Actually better to view from afar as opposed to up close. If you do enter and pay as a foreigner just be mindful of the closing times, the girl on reception was more than happy to let me pay and enter without telling me it was due to close in another 10 minutes.
Su Lay City is located in Kyauktada Township, Yangon Division. It is an ancient pagoda and a pagoda of Burmese people.
This place is completely incredible. Cant say enough, its huge and fascinating over and over again. Indescribable
My dream come true.. At last I went to this place which I hear stories about this place, where my mother, grandmother and grand grandmother used to go... Great achievement of my life...
Burmese stupa and one of the famous pagoda in Yangon.Sule pagoda constructed at the center of the circle road.Very close to the Yangon City Hall. I wanna suggest to the pagodas management teams to control the loudspeaker voices 🔉🔉🔉(very loud for visitors) and should upgrade the restrooms and other public facilities to make more comfortable to visitors(Local people and foreigners).
Amazing place. But I dont like the only foreigners are imposed an entrance fee.
The Sule Pagoda.It is in the heart of Yangon. In the middle of the junction of Sule Pagoda Road and Maharbandula Road. It was built at the same time of The Shwedagon Pagoda. It is one of the most significant pagoda in Yangon and you can find the direction of othre places easily from the point of Sule pagoda. Myanmar people call it Cut Kyaw Phayar means that the pagoda which was passed by the people travelling downtown.
One of the oldest pagoda in Yangon. Situated in the heart of downtown Yangon. At the time of my visit, entrance was 4000ks with an additional 1000ks for storing your footwear. You need to move around barefooted.
A city centered pagoda that is not so touristy.You can enter from Magga Bridge and go to City Hall pretty easily from the east gate.
One of the famous Pagoda for tourisim to visit.
Easily accessible from the center of Downtown Yangon. It costs 4,000 Kyats per person and youll need to remove your shoes and socks. Beware of guides who will follow you around and expect a sum at the end of your tour - it is not necessary to have a guide if you just want to walk around.Different birth days Buddhas are on display -you have to see which day in your birth year were you borne in and you can perform some simple cleansing rites based on the guided numbers listed on the statues. Interesting but I personally feel that if you see one temple, you see all. :)
Beautiful! Simply amazing, watch out for the traffic though, they dont stop for pedestrians to cross at the roundabout
Sule Pagoda also during Covid-19
The temple has an admission fee of 4000kyats, and the florists at the entrance are NOT the ticket seller, lets just put it that way. Just ignore them and move up, i wish i did. Other than that, its a nice, central location, very easy access
This massive pagoda is really beautiful and so close to the market! Worth the visit plus there are helpful staff around for yhe curious non Burmese guests!
Sule Pagoda. This is just down the road from where I stayed, the Shangri-la. Its a great introduction to pagodas before you step into the large ones like Shwedagon. Observe the customs, take off your slippers or shoes before you enter. If you wear socks, its going to get quite dirty. I recommend bringing wet tissue along to wipe your bare feet before putting your footwear on again. Being a tourist, youre required to pay for an entrance fee. Just pay, and dont fuss over the cost.
Beautiful. But dont buy any bird in the area to free them. It was nearly dead, even you free them it dont have any stamina to fly.Dont buy to lower the demand and they will be free because it will not cause any more profit.
Much smaller than Shwedagon with similar layout but far fewer buildings. Also the eight-day prayer stations. 4000kyat entry for foreigners. If you wish to visit this pagoda, do it before Big Brother else it may be disappointing.
This golden images of Buddha sule Pagoda was second Pagoda praying in the Yangon, this place is central of the city of Yangon. Beside east of sule was a City Hall and Garden of BOCHOK Sung San.
Sule Pagoda ( Long Time To Now Time )
Lucky evening, The day I reach yangon first time, passing through the destination and saw beautiful Sule Pagoda. I may stay more to see this but ... 10 pm...
Ok to visit. Yet quite smaller than some others. Tourist be carefully of con artists, fake help for kids and so on. We
Good experience. The pagoda is located at the centre of township. 5000mmk entrance fee, 1000mmk for flowers.
Because it is one of the famous pagoda in Yangon. If you were in Myanamr, you should not miss this.
Neat temple in the center of a busy traffic circle in the heart of downtown Yangon. Entrance fee is around 4000 kyat (which really isnt much) but it is definitely worth the price of admission. A wonderful and relaxing break from the frenetic cacophony of downtown Yangon
Definitely worth a visit for its grandeur and location in the heart of downtown Yangon. There is an admission fee of 4,000 kyats (3 USD) during my visit. As in all pagodas in the city, visitors are asked to dress modestly and remove their footwear before entering. Bring a bag for your footwear instead of depositing them at one of the four entrances so you can exit anytime without going back to your starting point.
Biggest pagoda in Yangon. This is a central in Yangon. Near have park.
The ancient Pagoda in Yangon,4000 MMK for a ticket (foreign tourists)If you are from the other side of Thanlyin, you can go here by bus No 4. Have fun and good luck to the one who find it helpful.
Very nice pagoda. Turisty though, got a nice tour and learned about buddhism from a monk, whereafter was asked for a donation, and they did not think mine was high enough.
Very nice place to visit and Buddhist ritual experience in Myanmar.
Wish for success in work and give the gold sheet to the top of pagodo with your effort in turning wheel.
Very good ambience also good peoples very co operative and value for money must try..

Sule pagoda. One of the famous pagoda in myanmar..The Sule Pagoda (Burmese: ဆူးလေဘုရား; pronounced [sʰúlè pʰəjá]) is a Burmese stupa located in the heart of downtown Yangon, occupying the centre of the city and an important space in contemporary Burmese politics, ideology and geography. According to legend, it was built before the Shwedagon Pagoda during the time of the Buddha, making it more than 2,600 years old. Burmese legend states that the site for the Shwedagon Pagoda was asked to be revealed from an old nat who resided at the place where the Sule Pagoda now stands.The Sule Pagoda has been the focal point of both Yangon and Burmese politics. It has served as a rallying point in both the 1988 uprisings and 2007 Saffron Revolution.
Pagoda is locate in the middle of Yangon, can walk around in the night time,
What a beautiful place! If you want to inhale Myanmar culture, please bare your feet and enter in silence to discover what this place has to offer. Give it a go!
Nice pagoda near city hall.
One of the most beautiful pagoda in Myanmar
Sulae pagoda is located at central of yangon city.
Ancient and historic Pagoda in downtown busy area. Easy to visit from any place.
This is a nice place and most interesting thing is there you can find, mosque, Pegoda, church nearby together.
Nice place for night walk in Yangon
Sule pagoda. It is located at the centre of Yangon City. Around Sule pagodas, you can see all variety of religious temple located here. It is the only place that junction of all of the religious temple buildings.It is one of the place you must go there if u arrived Myanmar.If you go to Sule pagoda, you must wear traditional clothes or you must wear safety design clothes that suitable for pagoda places.Thank you.
It is a quiet and shady place in the middle of downtown. As for a Buddhist, you can pray, practice mediation and count beads there peacefully. As for others, you can still enjoy the brilliant art works of the ancient pagoda that have been situated there over 3000 years. And there are free drinking water supplies and public toilets for everyone.
Sule pagoda is a famous pagoda in downtown Yangon near Mahabandula park and Yangon city hall. Very easy to get there as it is located in the heart of Yangon. Though the pagoda is not as big and famous as Shwedagon, there are many things to explore around the pagoda. If you havent been there, you should go there at least once while you are in Yangon.
First attraction I arrived upon reaching Yangon. Small temple in my opinion but I guess these are the common attractions tourist will visit.
Fair price, Good Quality and best service.
Heart of buddha
This is historical placeNice to visit
Excellent temple with astonishing view. It is free entry for the locals but foreigner has to pay 3,000 kyat. Please take note have to take out your shoes and socks to enter the temple. I experienced a bad experience with their local staff shouting for it. Its not pleased to witness that.
Nice Place and fantastic!Everyone can go there.There is junction for Buses.
A Paradise in the center of City.
Need admission ticket for foreigner. Definitely not worth Paying 4000kyats to visit this Pagoda
Worth visiting before Shvedagon otherwise this temple will be a disappointment. Lack of cleaning
Nothing much to see,dont waste time ,you can do a shopping in near by places
Most famous place in Yangon. If you come here. I recommend taking pictures on a pedestrian overpass. You can get fancy pic!
Its such a beautiful pagoda.
Be sure to take off shoes at entrance, beautiful spot especially at night.
Now we cannot go easily bec of mal
Beautiful golden pagoda rising in the crossroad of two avenues. We didn’t visit inside, but it’s a must pass by while walking in Yangon. Besides there are ATMs at the entrance and a lot of buses stop here. Buses to Schwedagon pagoda passes here, taking 10min, ask the locals (200MKK). The bus 36 yellow also goes from here to Aung Min Ga Lar Bus Terminal north of the city, taking at least 1h (200MKK).
The Sule Pagoda is Closing.
This is a very nice octagonal pagoda and apparently was used as a reference point during the reconstruction of the city streets during the colonial era.The entrance ticket is a couple of thousand kyats after you have ascended the first flight of stairs. It is up to you to decide whether you wish to purchase flowers and other offerings - including incense sticks and candles - from ladies at the base of the stupa, at pavement level beside the streets outside.Inside the pagoda you may be accosted by especially ‘helpful’ young men who seemingly wish to guide you around the place. Again, they aren’t being selfless and to believe so is rather gullible on your part, so be forewarned that payment will be expected. Even I was asked - in the Myanmar language - for two notes, which my relatives later informed me was excessive and a bit of a ‘scam’.Again the decisions on how much you decide to expend are entirely yours alone. But for me 20,000 was still not a great deal - especially since I had an interesting chat with the ‘guide’ in the process.
Entry is 3000 kyat, you can borrow appropriate clothing of you dont have one. The place is not that big but still worth to see of you are in the area.
Fulfillment and wishes pagoda. And also center of Yangon. The shape of pagoda is octagonal shape which based on 8 born days. Some Yangon men tell that pagoda is Kart Kyaw Pagoda means very near and never arrive, just passing praying.
Situated in the heart of the city of Yangon downtown. It is known for main political hub of Burmese condition with ideological and geographic significant. This Pagoda being in the heart of city seen many up and downside of political movement during 2007 and 1980s too. As per the historical aspect sule Pagoda is nat (spirit) of sularata (the sule Nat)from where it derive its name.
Nice pagoda, ticket 4000 kya for 1 person. Near city center.
Stunning architecture. Love how it’s situated in the middle of busy Yangon. You can get nice pics from the footbridges near the Shangri-La.
