The capital of Myanmar is Nay Pyi Taw, a purpose-built city that officially replaced Yangon as the administrative capital in 2006. Meaning “seat of the king” in Burmese, Nay Pyi Taw is known for its massive scale, including 20-lane highways and a lack of city center or road signs, leading to descriptions of it being an eerily deserted or “ghost” city.
