Funny way to store gold

Myanmar (Burma) has its own way of storing gold.

The Shwedagon Pagoda is one of the premier Buddhist temples in the world and dates back some 2,500 years.

This huge monument wears thousands of tons of gold, like a coat in cold weather.

As if this isn’t rich enough, it has thousands of diamonds...
