About Kyaiktiyo
There is a lot of confusion about the actual name of the location of the Golden Rock and the related cities. In the following all three are explained: In addition, there is always a big discussion whether it is worth to come here or whether this is just a touristic scam. However, remember that this is a major pilgrim side in Myanmar and not just made to rip-off western tourist. Yes, the latter have to pay a steep surplus, but is $10 really worth this discussion?
