Rakhine State Cultural Museum

TIME : 2016/2/17 15:27:37

This museum features two floors of Rakhine cultural goodies that benefit from just enough English subtitles. On the first floor are displays on local customs such as models showing off some of the 64 traditional Mrauk U royal hairstyles, and drawings illustrating key moves you may need for Rakhine wrestling. The 2nd floor features diagrams and artefacts that detail Rakhine’s origins (around 3000 BC) and four key periods (Dhanyawadi, Vesali, Lemro and Mrauk U), complete with useful renderings and models.
