MINGALAZEDI PAGODA
Built a few years before the fall of the kingdom of Bagan. At the end of the 13th century, in 1284. Among the later monuments built in the kingdom of Pagan, the Mingalazedi pagoda marks the culmination of Burmese architecture. Note the varnished jataka on its terraces, the small pagodas at the four corners and the shape of the kalasa pot. At the top of the third terrace, four large conical stupas can be seen, giving a slender shape to the whole, which is completed by a pinnacle above the zedi. Of great beauty.
