Mandalay General Post Office

Mandalay GPO is located at the corner of 22nd and 81st street. The exact location on the map is here.  It is the Region grade PO (Mandalay Region) and its postal code is 05011.  It is quite near to the brick walled fort of Mandalay palace and water moat (kyone).  I have visited this GPO on 3rd November 2014.

There is postcard and old stamps shop in the building.  I have sent some registered mail from this GPO to Singapore.  The staff is helpful and patient.
