🎧 Listen to Introduction
The Pyu ruins include the remains of three brick-walled, moated cities, Ha Rin, Bektano and Sriksettra, located on vast irrigated lands in the arid zone of the Irrawaddy River. They reflect the prosperity of the Pyu Kingdom for more than 1,000 years between 200 BC and 900 AD. The three cities are partially excavated archaeological sites. The remains include excavated palace castles, cemeteries and manufacturing sites, as well as huge brick pagodas, partially standing walls and water management facilities - some of which are still in use - that underpin organized intensive agriculture.
