Ye is an ancient city located in the Mon State of southeastern Myanmar. It is a peaceful, friendly destination with a rich cultural heritage and historical sites to explore. Visitors can see some of the oldest pagodas in the region, including Shwemokhtaw Pagoda with its golden spire reflecting the setting sun, and Uppatasanti Pagoda which houses a significant relic of Lord Buddha.
