number. Only the words in Burmese language is displayed on their

Kyaik Khauk Pagoda
When the bus passes by Kyaik Khauk
Pagoda (you can see the pagoda at your right side), get ready to get down.
Here, you have two options.
(1) If you reach to Phayar Kone junction area earlier than 4pm (Myanmar time), the bus will continue plying to East Yangon University. Hence, the bus will stop at the very lane (concrete lane) leading to ThaBarWa Centre. You do not have to walk from Phayar Kone junction.
You can request either the bus driver or the conductor to alert you when the bus reaches to ThaBarWa Yeiktha bus stop.
(2) If you reach after 4pm, the bus will end at Phayar Kone bus terminal, which is located at the bustling junction of Kyaik Khauk Pagoda Road and No 6 Road.
Upon reaching Phayar Kone junction bus terminal, you have to check with either the bus driver whether the bus will continue going towards ThaBarWa Yeiktha direction or will end at Phayar Kone terminal.
If the bus ends at Phayar Kone junction, you have two alternatives to go to ThaBarWa Centre.
