1951 Burma Burmese D River Myanmar Pagoda Rangoon Sule
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of Bandoola Square in Rangoon, Burma (now Myanmar), in the year 1951. The iconic Sule Pagoda, a landmark of the city, stands proudly in the background, its golden spire reaching towards the clear blue sky. The square, named after General Maha Bandoola who led the resistance against British colonial rule, is bustling with activity. Children play and laugh in the foreground, their carefree spirits adding a touch of warmth and joy to the scene. They are clad in traditional Burmese attire, adding to the authenticity of the image. The calm and serene Dhala River flows gently in the background, reflecting the tranquility and beauty of the scene. The photograph transports us back in time to the 1950s, an era of simplicity and innocence. The people of Rangoon went about their daily lives, unaware of the political and social changes that were on the horizon. The photograph is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, a time when life was slower, and the simple pleasures of childhood were cherished. The photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Burma and the resilience of its people. It invites us to take a moment to reflect on the past and appreciate the beauty and diversity of our world.
