Romantic rendezvous at Kandawgyi Lake
Located east of the Shwedagon Pagoda, Kandawgyi Lake (aka Royal lake) enjoys a prime location amid Kandawgyi Nature Park and Yangon Zoological Garden and has always been a hot spot for romance seekers. With a history that dates back to the days of the British colonial era, the lake is an acclaimed place for the serene setting and the breathtaking views it offers.
Couples at Kandawgyi Lake can enjoy unforgettable moments either in the relaxing area of the splendid gardens or walking leisurely holding hands around the boardwalk of the lake. Kandawgyi Lake is packed with onsite restaurants and cafes but our suggestion is that you prepare a special honeymoon picnic box with a bottle of champagne and live your love story by the lake.
