She was accompanied by ministers and officials from the Mandalay Region Government and the Department of Archaeology and National Museum. The group first went to the Archaeological Museum in Old Bagan, where the branch director gave an overview and answered their questions. They then toured several historic sites, including Ananda Temple, Myazedi Pagoda in Myinkaba Village, Shwezigon Pagoda, the Rajakumar stone inscription, the mural paintings at Myinkaba Gu Pyauk Gyi Pagoda, and Nan Myint Tower. Later, they visited the U Ba Nyein Lacquerware Industry and shop in New Bagan to observe traditional Myanmar lacquerware. The delegation ended the day by taking documentary photos of the sunset at Htilominlo Pagoda. [/QUOTE]
