Getting Around

The best way to see the city is renting a rickshaw for the day. You'll pay around 3 US$ for 2 persons for the whole day. You can go to: Buddha stone factory, where they make Buddha's in all sizes. Everything is handmade. They also export to China. Gold leave factory: they make gold leaves by hand here, amazing! Marionettes factory: Mandalay is also famous for its marionettes. These wooden puppets are very nicely made. Watch out for fake antique puppets if you want to buy one.
