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.

It was a building mitigated royal. Last residence of king Mindon, it was moved outside the rempartspar his son because it recalled sad souvenirs and turned it into a monastery. As a result it survived the fire from the palace and it is determined to visit: magnificence of architecture and sculptures. Really must
