The '''Bago River''' ({{Wiki|Burmese language|Burmese}}: ပဲခူးမြစ်; ''Pegu River'') is a river in southern [[Myanmar]] which flows through {{Wiki|Bago, Myanmar|Bago}} and [[Yangon]], joining the {{Wiki|Yangon River}} south of downtown Yangon.<ref name="Wiki">{{WP|Bago River}}</ref>

==History==
In 1608, after his theft of the {{Wiki|Great Bell of Dhammazedi}} from the [[Shwedagon Pagoda]], the [[Portugal|Portuguese]] explorer [[Filipe de Brito e Nicote]] attempted to transport the bell on a raft across the Bago River. However, the raft broke up due to the load's weight and bell sunk to the bottom of the river, where it remains lost to this day.<ref name="Wiki"/>

In 1725, the members of the [[Zhawang Corporation|Zhang Wei Union]] sailed along the Bago River on their flagship ''[[Fenghuang]]'' to reach Yangon and retrieve a [[Piece of Eden]] housed within the Shwedagon Pagoda.<ref name="FT 97">''[[Assassin's Creed: Forgotten Temple]]'' – [[Assassin's Creed: Forgotten Temple Episode 97|Episode 97]]</ref>
