Very well known Golden Rock is a sacred, huge gold-leafed boulder located on the edge of a cliff near the top of Mt. Kyaikhtiyo. No doubt, the Golden Rock is one of the most revered Buddhist shrines. It has been widely accepted that the boulder keeps its balance due to the three strands of Buddha hair relic enshrined inside the rock.
