EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a breathtaking rooftop view of Ragoon, now known as Yangon, the largest city in Myanmar (Burma) during the late 19th century. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history and culture of this fascinating country. The architectural landscape is a testament to the diverse influences that shaped the city during this era. European colonial buildings, with their grandiose facades and ornate details, stand proudly alongside traditional Burmese structures, their red-tiled rooftops blending harmoniously with the cityscape. The streets below are a maze of narrow lanes, bustling with activity, as merchants and traders go about their daily business. The photograph was likely taken from the rooftop of one of the grand European mansions that once dotted the city. The view is panoramic, stretching out over the rooftops of Ragoon, revealing the intricate details of the buildings and the bustling streets below. The image is a reminder of a bygone era, a time when Ragoon was a thriving hub of trade and cultural exchange. Despite the passage of time, the city's historic landmarks continue to stand, bearing witness to the city's rich history. Today, Ragoon, now Yangon, is a popular destination for travelers seeking to explore the unique blend of cultures and traditions that make Myanmar such a fascinating country. This photograph serves as a reminder of the city's past, offering a glimpse into the history and heritage that continues to shape it today.
