Thanboddhay Paya

you are travelling to Monwya by car you should stop about 20 kilometres before you reach the town to visit this most unusual Buddhist temple complex on 37 acres of land which is part of the Mohnyin Forest Monastery retreat. The pagoda was started on 20th June 1939 and completed on 2nd March 1952. It was the brain-child of the famous Mohnyin Sayadaw whose life-like effigy can be seen nearby. Some visitors say that this Pagoda reminds them of Borobodur, as it is similar in architectural design. Unlike Borobodur this is a modern place of worship, well maintained, and with interesting samples of modern Buddhist art. There are many different Buddha images, row upon row in ascending tiers in niches along the walls: the total number is 582, 257, an amazing figure! Unlike most of the pagodas in Myanmar, the entrance is not guarded by Chinthes, the mythical lions, but by statues of a pair of magnificant white elephants which are sacred and auspicious in Buddhist symbolism. Thanboddhay is the only pagoda with this unique shape in the whole country. The square temple base (each side about 166 feet) which worshippers can enter is topped by receding terraces, with myriads of small stupas (864 in number) surrounding the central golden chedi, 132 feet in height.

Walking into the sea of Pagoda, it is hard not to be shocked by its exquisite appearance, imaginative and varied colors. Blue sky and white clouds and luxurious golden stupa make every visitor shocked. The elaborately carved palace is a religious belief in Buddhism. Time is always here at this moment, waiting quietly here. When I first saw such a delicate building, I couldnt help but respect it.

The beautiful pagoda is filled with carnival-like colors, pink, orange, yellow and blue. In every corner of the stupa, there are more than 500,000 Buddha statues. I have to be amazed by the local villagers enthusiasm for Buddhism. Into this magical temple, not only shocked by the imagination of the day, but also the enthusiasm of people for their enthusiasm.

The golden stupa of the whole body shines in the sun, exuding a king's domineering.

In the southwest of Mandalay, across the Irrawaddy River, there is a small town called Sagaing. The small town is built on the hills of the Real, next to the Irrawaddy River. In 1287, Kublais Mongolian army invaded Burma and ended the Bagan Dynasty. After that, several small Yi nationalities appeared in central Myanmar, and the Sagaing Kingdom was one of them. It was established from 1315, and was annexed by the Ava Dynasty in 1364. The Sagaing Dynasty only existed for forty-nine years, and in the forty-nine years of the Supreme dynasty, the Sagaing Dynasty was true. All cities are capitals. Moreover, after the annexation of the Sava dynasty, the Awa Dynasty also used Sagaing as its successor to the Taiwanese capital or the seal of the older prince, and during the reign of the second king of the tributary dynasty, Sagaing became the city.

It is hidden in the western part of Myanmar, and it is a mysterious land that is difficult to cross because of the inconvenient traffic.

Walking into this romantic Buddha Temple on the outskirts of Wangfu County, it is an incredible Buddhist cultural journey. Among the temples, there is the largest standing Buddha in Myanmar, the tallest in the world. The Buddha stood quietly on the hills of the monastery, looking at the distance peacefully. On the road a few kilometers away, he could see him. Many couples walked here, and it was very romantic. Starting from Wangfu County, walking along the road to Mandalay, entering a path about seven kilometers, is the road leading to the Big Buddha Temple, along the way, many Burmese people crowded in tricycles, even cattle carts Among them, marching toward this grand temple, opening their pilgrimage, although the conditions are simple, the piety is moving. When you walk into the monastery, the most eye-catching is undoubtedly the tall standing Buddha. His body is tall and sits on the hill.

Behind the Buddha, a direct elevator to the top is being built. After the completion, you can take the elevator and climb to the commanding heights to see the beauty of Sagaing. In addition to this tall standing Buddha, there is also a huge and beautiful reclining Buddha in the temple. The length of the foot is 90 meters. The size of one foot is equivalent to the size of a small house. Quietly leaning against the red wooden pillow underneath, echoing with the standing Buddha behind him, it has formed an incomparably spectacular scene, and the people of So Paulos enthusiasm for religion are vividly displayed, which is extremely shocking.

Glorious Myanmar

#本地遊 #temple Picturesque temple with white gorgeous exterior. Famous for 7 water wave like structures. You need to come and see for this spectacular sight for yourself. Too bad Myanmar is now war torn zone. Wish my country will get better so that more people will come see this beautiful country. It’s located near central Myanmar with world 3rd biggest bell which is magnificent to see.

White Pagoda 🕊

The Hsinbyume Pagoda was one of the most beautiful pagodas of our trip to Mandalay. It is difficult to have a favorite pagoda in the Burmese country since it has infinite of them and they all have got something special...🇲🇲 #passionpassport #pagoda #tripaway #myanmar #couplestrip #summervacation

This looks AMAZINGGGG. Photos cannot give justice how beautiful this place is. This is my favorite pagoda in Myanmar. Look vibrant and wear a colorful dress that will match the background. Very entrance fee and there’s a lot of locals who can take your photo. just give them a tip or buy flowers or anything. they are very hospitable.

what a great place to see the history of Myanmar. #merrychristmas

Pahtodawgyi in Myanmar is the place where Mingun Pagoda is located. It was supposed to be the biggest pagoda in the world but they stopped building the pagida because of a prophecy. This is now a ruin but this broken pagoda holds so much beauty in it. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway

The number of temple towers in Myanmar can make the world's tourists feel shocked. For outsiders, it is difficult to remember their names one by one in the face of almost identical temple towers. But there is an "alternative" Mingong stupa, whose unique "castle" structure has made many people deeply remember it. Myanmar is a country with a long history. The glory of the past has left many ancient buildings on its land, attracting people from all over the world to experience its cultural charm. However, you can know that at that time, as the most powerful Minggong dynasty, it was regrettable to leave a "unfinished building". Mingon Pagoda is an unfinished palace built by King Mengyun of Myanmar for his queen and one of the largest brick buildings in the world. However, despite the fact that the Gongbang Dynasty was rich and powerful, this huge pagoda was terminated by the death of the king. However, this magnificent project, built with bricks and only 50 meters high, is still the largest ancient pagoda in Myanmar, and still exudes the domineering power of the royal pagoda.
