info Bogyoke Aung San (ဗိုလ်ချုပ်အောင်ဆန်း) meaning General Aung San, was the hero who fought for the Independence of Myanmar.
He was assassinated on 1947 July 19th by Galone U Saw and his companions. After his death, Bogyoke's Home became the museum for the public, to go and see during the memorial days. The museum was established in 1962, at No.15, Bogyoke Museum Lane, Bahan Township near Kandawgyi Lake. It is a two storey building built during the colonial time. Several old family photos, famous speeches and other personal mementos such as handwritten noone can be seen inside the museum.
