Seeing the 900-year-old temples from behind the sealed glass windows of a private car would be a lamentable disregard of nature?s pre-monsoon celebration. Despite the heat,the best way around Pagan, also known as Bagan, is by bicycle. All it takes is a subtle alteration of the typical itinerary?rising with the roosters, napping in the afternoon, and starting again in the evening...
