Photo of the Week: Shwedagon Pagoda by Local Guide Longatse Michael

[Christina-NYC]

The glittering gold of the Shwedagon Pagoda against a vivid blue sky makes this a beautifully vivid Photo of the Week. Built around 1372, this pagoda located in Bali, Indonesia is considered by many as one of the oldest pagodas in the world. This photo was captured by Local Guide Longatse Michael.
