EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the bustling city of Yangon, Myanmar (then known as Rangoon, Burma) in the 1910s. The image showcases the grandeur of the Main Stands at the Racecourse, a popular colonial-era attraction that drew large crowds for horseracing events. The architectural style of the Main Stands is a testament to the British colonial influence in Myanmar during that era. The grandstand's design exudes an air of sophistication and elegance, with its red-brick facade, intricate ironwork, and tall, arched windows. The stands appear to be surrounded by lush greenery, adding to the serene and picturesque setting. The photograph also reveals the excitement and energy of the race day atmosphere. The finishing post and the racecourse can be seen in the background, with the grandstand's main entrance located to the left of the image. The stands are filled with spectators, many of whom are dressed in fashionable attire, eagerly watching the race unfold. The Main Stands at the Racecourse in Yangon were more than just a venue for horseracing; they were a symbol of British colonial power and a gathering place for the elite and affluent residents of the city. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of Myanmar during the colonial era, providing a fascinating insight into the country's past.
