EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling energy of Sule Pagoda Road in Rangoon, Burma, in 1935. The image transports us back in time to an era of colonial history, as horse-drawn carts and bicycles share the narrow, cobblestone street with automobiles. At the heart of the scene, the iconic Sule Pagoda, an ancient Buddhist shrine, stands proudly, its golden spire reaching towards the sky. The Sule Pagoda, believed to be over 2,000 years old, is a sacred site for the Burmese people and has played a significant role in the city's history. It is said that the pagoda was originally built to house a strand of the Buddha's hair. The pagoda's location in the heart of Rangoon, then known as the capital of British Burma, made it a popular destination for both locals and foreigners. The street scene in the photograph is a vibrant mix of various cultures and communities, reflecting the diverse population of Rangoon during that time. European colonial influences are evident in the architecture of the buildings lining the street, while traditional Burmese shops and market stalls can be seen selling textiles, food, and other local wares. The photograph also provides a glimpse into the daily life of the people of Rangoon during the colonial period. Men in longyis, the traditional Burmese garment, walk alongside European men in suits, while women in colorful saris and cheongsams go about their business. The image is a testament to the rich cultural tapestry that existed in Burma before the political upheavals and conflicts that followed. This photograph is an invaluable historical record of a time and place that has since undergone significant changes. It invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the complex history of Burma and its people.
