Interesting and colourful buildings with a range of architectural styles and periods. Between Anawrahta and Mahabandoola is a fabulous morning wet market including some wholesale foods, on a street without cars, which is a joy. Meat and fish tend to be nearer Mahabandoola, while vegetables, fruits and street snacks are nearer Anawrahta. There is also a passage way to the basement wet market of Than Zay – the “metal market” for all your kitchenwares – see Lanmadaw Road.
