The Colonial Buildings of Yangon (Rangoon)
Yangon (Rangoon) is one of the finest places for viewing colonial architecture, as it has the highest concentration of colonial buildings in the world. Myanmar became a colony of Britain in 1824 after the First Anglo-Burmese War, and remained until 1948. Known as Rangoon, it was the capital of Burma between 1824 and 1948 and one of the provinces of the British-India Empire.
After independence, the country had been run by a military regime where no infrastructure improvements were made, leaving colonial structures standing. However, many of these beautiful structures now stand in disrepair. These impressive buildings have seen a lot over the years, including colonial control, a Japanese invasion, military rule, and the struggle for peace.
It witnessed a rich architectural development during this period following different styles: Art Deco, Edwardian, Victorian, and British-Burmese.
Although some of the structures are in bad condition, there are efforts to restore them, and visiting Yangon will transport you back in time, where you have the opportunity to view these outstanding pieces of colonial architecture.
