Aunglan, Myanmar

Aunglan (Burmese: အောင်လံ, formerly known as Allanmyo & Myede) is the biggest city in Thayet District of the Magway Region of Myanmar.

It is a port on the left (eastern) bank of the Irrawaddy, across and just north of Thayetmyo,[1] between the cities of Pyay (Prome), Taungdwingyi (Prome) and Magway.

Aunglan was a new city formed moving from Myede.

After the second Anglo-Burmese war, the south of Myede Township was annexed by the British and the north was ruled by the Myanmar King.
