City Hall, Rangoon

the photo shows the Yangon city Hall, now administered by the YCDC (Yangon City Development committee) and is a reasonable impressive structure dating from 1939, although work began in 1928. I don't believe you can actually go in there, unless on business, but it is quite pleasant architecturally.

Located next to Sule Paya in front of the Mahabandola park, this beautiful yellow building was built in 1939 by Burmese architect Sithu U thin. The building has a mixture of British and Burmese architecture with some interesting details as the green peacock ornamentation above the main entrance, and the Burmese designs on the pillars and roof.
