In here, it's extremely prohibited to wear shorts not only in pagodas but also in all religious places. You must wear Myanmar traditional costume or any appropriate outfit which has to be under knee-lengthed. Besides, you are also demanded to come bare-footed. You can either bring your shoes in a plastic bag or leave them at the counter.
