EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century photograph transports us back in time to the bustling city of Ragoon, now known as Yangon, in Myanmar (then Burma). The image, taken around 1890, showcases the rich cultural heritage and architectural grandeur of this ancient city. The photograph is dominated by the stunning pagodas and temples that have stood the test of time, their golden spires reaching towards the clear blue sky. The intricate details of these religious structures, with their ornate decorations and towering towers, are a testament to the deep-rooted Buddhist traditions that have shaped the city's identity for centuries. The urban landscape of Ragoon is also on full display, with narrow streets teeming with activity. Horse-drawn carts and pedestrians navigate the roads, while vendors sell their wares and children play in the streets. The city's colonial architecture is evident in the European-style buildings, with their grand facades and imposing structures. Among the buildings, we can also see a temple or palace, its red and gold walls glistening in the sunlight. The serene presence of a golden statue adds to the spiritual ambiance of the scene. The photograph captures the essence of a time when traditional and modern influences came together to create a unique and vibrant city. The photograph is a precious reminder of the ancient history and rich cultural heritage of Myanmar, a place that continues to attract travelers from around the world who seek to explore its wonders and discover its hidden gems.
