  • Came here for a short day visit, the buildings surrounding the site are massive. But a lot of the buildings are empty and the size is vast for what is necessary. Wouldnt recommend unless you want to kill some time.
  • Place we can get knowledge
  • Beyond description. Huge. A hagiography. English speakers, Mr Moses, often to be found in the Naval exhibition, speaks excellent English and is very kind and helpful.
  • Pretty cool museum actually. Quiet modern for Burmese standards, although it doesn't seem to frequented by other tourists. We enjoyed the atmosphere of the mostly empty exhibition halls. Definitely worth a go if you're in the area. Best bet is to rent a bike or go by cab as there is no public transport whatsoever and the place is a bit away from all the rest.
  • It was very very huge. If you want to learn abut the military history of Myanmar then this is the place to go. So many things on display.
