Downtown Yangon

Yangon was founded by King Alaungpaya on the site of a small villiage called Dagon when he conquered lower myanmar in 1755. And the name changed to Yangon means “end of strife” which was anglicized to Rangoon.

Yangon became the capital of Myanmar in 1885 (120 years on 6th Nov 2005).
