All in teak, this monastery was built by Thibaw in 1880, from materials recovered from apartments in Mindon. It was at the time part of the Royal Palace. The apartment of King Mindon, was moved outside the walls because his son evoked bad memories. Thanks to that, he escaped the palace fire! We can still see 10 large jataka, in good condition. Architecturally speaking, one of the most beautiful sites talking about Mandalay. If you need to find a good reason to pay 10 US$ for the package, look no further.

C'est un très beau bâtiment en teck qui est issu du palais royal. Il constituait une partie des appartements royaux. Il est sculpté et ciselé à la perfection et date du 9 ème siècle. Sur sa façade on peu voir des animaux mythiques, des esprits, des danseurs et des fleurs

Site remarquable avec ses sculptures d'une précision inégalable et d'une noblesse déconcertante dégagée par le bois de teck.

Même si le temps a fait son oeuvre, ce temple sombre vous offrira un moment de sérénité nécessaire après une visite de la ville.
