Hsinbyume Pagoda Mingun – The Famous Mandalay White Temple - Myanmar 2023
The Hsinbyume Pagoda ဆင်ဖြူမယ်စေတီ also known as Myatheindan Pagoda မြသိန်းတန်စေတီ is a large pagoda on the northern side of Mingun in Myanmar on the western bank of the Irrawaddy River. It is approximately 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) northwest of Mandalay and is located in the proximity of the Mingun Pahtodawgyi. The pagoda is painted white and is modelled on the physical description of the Buddhist sacred mountain Mount Meru.
The pagoda was built in 1816 by Bagyidaw. It is dedicated to the memory of his first consort and cousin, Princess Hsinbyume (ဆင်ဖြူမယ် Princess White Elephant, 1789–1812) who died during childbirth nearby.
The pagoda's design is a great departure from Burmese pagoda design norms. It is based on descriptions of the mythical Sulamani pagoda on Mount Meru, and the lower parts of the pagoda represent the mountains. Seven concentric terraces represent the seven mountain ranges going up to the Mount Meru according to Buddhist mythology.
The pagoda was badly damaged by an earthquake in 1838 and was restored by King Mindon in 1874.
It’s known as the Taj Mahal of Myanmar. The design and history of it is very interesting. It is defiantly worth the time to come and spend an hour or so at this temple.
Enjoy the video!
