ReplyDeleteColumbia's nickname is true to the country....it is really a Loco country and Iceland's nickname is kind of metaphoric in a way.....lol
Thanks! I thought Colombia's nickname was interesting as well. I thought Switzerland would have a different nickname though. Something to the effect of money and expensive living. Oh well, just my thoguht

ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteMyanmar is called The Golden Land / The Land of Golden Pagodas
The Golden Land--called because of its rich natural resources, including gold, timber, and agricultural products
[Some traditions also said that the myth kingdom "Suvannabhumi" meaning "The Golden Land", called by ancient Indian traders, was actually the ancient Mon Kingdom (now a state in Myanmar).]
The Land of Golden Pagodas--called because of its numerous pagodas around the country. You may want to tour around and amaze the worshipful and historic pagodas like Shwedagon Pagoda (Yangon), Chauktatgyi Paya (Yangon), Kyaiktiyo Paya (Mawlamyaing), Shwethalyaung Reclining Buddha (Bago), Shwezigone Pagoda (Bagan-Nyaung U), and other tourist-attraction places in Myanmar. But do not fail to visit to Bagan, the main Buddhist concentration area, which is the ancient capital city of the First Myanmar Empire, if you ever visit to Myanmar.
