A couple has sparked outrage after filming a video of themselves having sexual intercourse at a sacred Buddhist temple in Myanmar.
The couple engaged in sexual activity in the ancient city of Bagan, a well-known tourist destination in Myanmar and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The 12-minute video was then posted on Pornhub under the profile name, ‘YeeesYeeesYeees’. The uploaders described themselves as a 23-year-old Italian couple with tattoos and piercings.
The video, which has been viewed over 250,000 times and retrieved more dislikes than likes, shows them performing the act, with the camera panning to show the pagoda in the background.
Locals expressed anger at the clip, with many expressing frustration towards the couple.
“Our Bagan pagodas are The Holy Land,” wrote Mg Khin Gyi on Facebook.
Managing director of tour company New Fantastic Asia, Tun Tun Naing, criticized the security at the site and called for action against the couple.
Blaming the coronavirus behind a decline in tourist numbers, Mandalay chairman of the Union of Myanmar Travel Association Myo Yee said it had been a difficult time for them as many tourists were not coming to the country.
