Mahamuni Paya

Consistently, a large number of vividly dressed reliable revere Mahamuni's 13ft-tall situated buddha, a broadly praised picture that is famously accepted to be about 2000 years of age.

Hundreds of years of votary gold leaf connected by male aficionados ladies may just watch have left the figure knobbly with a 6in layer of unadulterated gold aside from on his brilliantly sparkling face, which is ritualistically cleaned every day at 4 am.

The statue was at that point old in 1784 when it was seized from Mrauk U by the Burmese armed force of King Bodawpaya.

The epic story of how it was dragged back to Mandalay is retold in a progression of 1950s canvases in a photo display over the pagoda's internal patio toward the upper east of the Buddha picture.
