Hsinbyume Pagoda
Hsinbyume Pagoda, also known as Myatheindan, is a large pagoda on the northern side of Mingun and the northwest of Mandalay. Painted white and modeled on the physical description of the Buddhist mythological mountain, Mt. Meru, Hsinbyume Pagoda was built by Bagyidaw in 1816 with a couple of stories behind it. Hsinbyume Pagoda was badly destroyed by the 1838 quake but was restored in 1874.
The seven whitewash wavy terraces around the stupa in Hsinbyume Pagoda represent the seven mountain ranges around Mt. Meru, while the five kinds of mythical monsters can be seen in niches on each terrace level. At the top, a Buddha sits directly behind another, the one behind is smaller than the one ahead.
