Thatbyinnyu Temple

Thatbyinnyu Temple is a famous temple nearby Ananda Temple in Bagan, built in the mid-12th century during the reign of King Alaungsithu. Named for “omniscience”, Thatbyinnyu Temple is Bagan’s highest temple, built for two white-colored boxy storeys, each with three diminishing terraces rimmed with spires and leading to a gold-tipped sikhara, 207ft up.

The monument size and verticality of Thatbyinnyu Temple make it a classic example of Bagan’s middle period - and nearly provide a chronological link between early-period Ananda Temple and late-period Gawdawpalin Temple nearby. Built in 1144 by Alaungsithu, the terraces of Thatbyinnyu Temple are encircled by indentations for 539 Jataka. Plaques were never added, leading some scholars to surmise that the monument was never consecrated.
