One of the most famous sightseeing place in Burma is the temple complex in Bagan, covering an area of about 41 square kilometers, including over 2000 temples, pagodas and other edifices. In opposition to the beauty of the area, the government took an absurd decision in 1990, resettling by force the residents in a nearby location, now known as "New Bagan". The military junta affirmed that it was necessary for the preservation of the archeological site.
