A different and modern building and the No.1 sight on Tripadvisor.
The city is known for its fruit bats which take wing by the hundreds at dusk. Try this location for a good sight.
Leftovers of a dark and very near past. Built in 1859, this is what remains after the crackdown on the Muslim population (Rohingya) after riots broke out in 2012, which killed 200 people.
