“MANDALAY DAY TOURS INFORMATION”

Mandalay Hill : 

Mandalay Hill, 230 meters in elevation, gives a magnificent view of the city and surrounded by the countryside. The legend is that the Buddha, on his visit, had made a prophecy that a great city would be founded at the foot of the hill.

Shwenandaw Monastery : 

This beautifully built monastery was originally inside the palace compound. King Thibaw had it moved to its present site east of the palace in 1879 after his father’s death.

Mahamuni Pagoda  : King Bodawpaya built this Pagoda in 1784 to house the Mahamuni Buddha Image brought from Rakhine State. Being the most revered Pagoda in Mandalay, the early morning ritual of washing the face of the Buddha’s image, draws a daily crowd of congregation.

Kuthodaw Pagoda : King Mindon built this Pagoda in 1868 surrounding it with 729 marble slabs inscribed with the Tipitaka text (the Three Baskets of the Buddhist Pali canon). It is often called the “World’s Biggest Book”

Kyauktawgyi Pagoda : Kyauktawgyi Pagoda (the Pagoda of the Great Marble Image), was also built by King Mindon, stands at the foot of Mandalay Hill. Built in 1865, the Pagoda is so called because it houses a large image of the Buddha sculpted from a single block of beautiful Sagyin marble.
