History, why the named is "Bagan Siapi-api"

This Morning, i heard a conversation between my mother and her customer about Chinese People. The customer (Medan) said that Bagan was a Very famous place cause there's a celebration that we called "GoGweCapLak" that is always be reported by television.

The complete named of Bagan is "Bagan Siapi-Api", and there's something that background the name.




Long time ago, there's Chinese people came to that place. At there, there's nothing life except there was so many insect that light at the dark. Yeah, there's what people called firefly. Because of the amount of firefly that so many, the people named that place Bagan Siapi- Api




And this's the famous temple at there..
