Rangoon/IBNS: A couple and their act of filming themselves having sex at a sacred Buddhist temple in Myanmar have triggered a row with several people slamming them for the act.

Bagan is an ancient city and a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in the Mandalay Region of Myanmar.
From the 9th to 13th centuries, the city was the capital of the Pagan Kingdom, the first kingdom that unified the regions that would later constitute modern Myanmar.
During the kingdom's height between the 11th and 13th centuries, 4,446 Buddhist temples, pagodas and monasteries were constructed in the Bagan plains alone, of which the remains of 3822 temples and pagodas still survive to the present day. Now Bagan is one of the UNESCO world heritage sites.
