Maze of the Week #70 - Bagan Temple Maze

Maze of the Week #70 is a temple in Bagan, Myanmar. It was made based off of a picture I took during a vacation I took there. Bagan is a great place to visit to see the thousands of temples in the area. This is an old maze with a story. It is also the first of 5 straight mazes of religious buildings. Here is the background:

When I was thinking about this site and making mazes I made a few mazes as proof of concept and this was one of them. Except I never finished it. I made a large mistake - I tried to make a complete paper sized maze. The amount of time it was taking (I was not as good with the tools I use at the time) was way too long. 5 years later I came back to it and decided to finish it with some changes.

The Maze: I did vertical and horizontal lines with the intention to create the maze later. And I did finish it over 5 years later. I like the way the lines help create the picture of the maze. I did not end up mazing everything as it would take a long time for little improvement.
