This is my 4th. cover from Myanmar. I received it from my local philatelic friend Tun Myint from Yangon (Rangoon), capital and main city of Myanmar.

MYANMAR
A cover from Myanmar with 5 stamps affixed on it. The K100 stamp celebrates Bagan, an ancient city and a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2019, in the Mandalay Region of Myanmar. From the 9th to 13th centuries, the city was the capital of the Pagan Kingdom, the first kingdom that unified the regions that would later constitute Myanmar. During the kingdom's height between the 11th and 13th centuries, more than 10,000 Buddhist temples, pagodas and monasteries were constructed in the Bagan plains alone, of which the remains of over 2200 temples and pagodas survive.
