Golden rock at sunset.
There is much to admire in Myanmar (Burma). For example the "Golden Rock". Between Bago and Tathon lies the small town of Kyaikhtyio, where the ascent to the Kyaikhtyio Pagoda begins. It is also known as the "Golden Rock Pagoda". The pagoda itself is only about 7.3 meters high and balances on a golden rock that is 7.6 meters high. According to Burmese belief, this rock is held in balance by two hairs of Buddha. The pagoda is one of the largest Buddhist sanctuaries in Myanmar. At all times, Buddhist believers (men) are on site and stick their gold plates on the rock, asking Buddha for his help. Women are not allowed to touch the shrine.

I've never seen or heard of this place, it made me pause and examine and wonder about the sizing and how you did that. Beautifully done!
Very nice composition.
