Bagan (formerly Pagan) is an ancient city located in the Mandalay Region of Myanmar . From the 9th to 13th centuries, the city was the capital of the Kingdom of Pagan, the first kingdom to unify the regions that would later constitute modern Myanmar. During the kingdom's height between the 11th and 13th centuries, over 10,000 Buddhist temples, pagodas and monasteries were constructed in the Bagan plains alone, of which the remains of over 2200 temples and pagodas still survive to the present day.

Preparazione di una risaia

 

Come accade per tutte le specie coltivate sin dall’antichità, è difficile precisare l’esatta zona di provenienza del riso quasi certamente originario dell’Estremo Oriente, dove ancora oggi vivono due tipi di riso selvatico.

Le prime notizie certe sulla coltivazione del riso risalgono al 2800 a.C. Recenti scoperte archeologiche hanno stabilito che anche sulle assolate colline della penisola indocinese questa attività era in atto nello stesso periodo, grazie alla realizzazione dei famosi terrazzati che rappresentano una delle più geniali e pittoresche soluzioni inventate dall’uomo per vincere i dislivelli naturali.

Myanmar - U-Bein Sunset

The Independence Monument in Maha Bandula Park

Burmese Shrike is a colourful member of the Laniidae, with a reddish back and dark grey crown grading into a black mask. It has a wide range in Southeast Asia, and is found in varied habitats. Its inclusion in the passerines (songbirds) — despite a more predatory feeding ecology than most others birds in that large group — is reinforced by musical vocalizations. This individual was seen in northwestern Thailand, near the border with the country I personally still prefer to refer to as Burma (which obviously gives the common name of this species).
