MYA THEINDAN PAGODA OF MINGUN
Mingun is a side on the Ayeyarwaddy River not far from Sagaing and Mandalay. The Mya Theindan pagoda, built in 1816 by the crown prince who later became King Bagyidaw, has a unique architecture. It is in the form of the Sulamuni Pagoda on top of Mt.Meru, which is the Center of the Universe according to ancient scripts and beliefs. The seven wavy rows of concentric terraces represent the seven mountain ranges surrounding Mt.Meru.
MINGUN
Mingun is located at 11 km upriver from Mandalay on the opposite bank of the Ayeyarwaddy River. It is noted for its huge unfinished Pagoda and the enormous "Mingun Bell", the largest ringing bell in the world. A short boat trip to Mingun from Mandalay is a pleasant one with plenty to see along the way.
