Continue proceed to Kyaukhtatgyi Pagoda (other name as Chauk That Gyi Pagoda) to see a 70 meter long reclining Buddha statue around the size of a blue whale.

In the afternoon, you continue uptown in order to make a quick stop by the Royal Lake located in Kandawgyi Park which is very popular with local residents, especially in the early morning and around sunset.
