Nay Pyi Taw is the capital city of Myanmar (Burma). It is located in the central part of the country and became the capital in 2006, replacing Yangon (Rangoon). The city was intentionally built to be the administrative and political center of Myanmar, with wide roads, large government buildings, and vast open spaces. The name "Nay Pyi Taw" translates to "abode of kings" or "royal city" in the Burmese language. It is home to the government offices, foreign embassies, and various official residences. The city has a low population density compared to other major cities in Myanmar, and much of it remains underdeveloped.
