The shrub- and flower-covered hills rising above are dotted with small towns, villages, and garden plots, and adorned with well-tended Buddhist shrines. The spires of these gold-leaf-covered pagodas reach skyward, like gilded sculptures arising from rock-outcroppings along not just the area’s one major highway. Mogok is best known for its gemstones, including ruby, sapphire, spinel, peridot, and moonstone.
