    BAGAN Ministry of Hotels & Tourism Office No.33 | Nay Pyi Taw +95 (0)67 4061 30 +95 (0)67 4064 54 [email protected] HIGHLIGHTS Experience a magical world, be transported back in time Pagodas Steeped in history and one of the most remarkable sights in southeast Asia, Bagan has inspired visitors to come to Myanmar for a thousand years. Ancient chronicles say that there were once 4,446 pagodas and stupas covering its wide plains but today around 2,230 splendid examples remain, as recorded by UNESCO in 1988. Largely built from the 10th to the 14th century, they are found in the Bagan Archaeological Zone, which is defined as an area measuring 104 sq km (40 sq miles) located in the vast expanse of plains in Upper Myanmar on the bend of the mighty Ayeyarwady River. River Being located in the dry central zone of the country, in the region of Mandalay, means that Bagan is not subject to the monsoon season like many other parts of Myanmar. This imbues the river with even greater importance for the inhabitants of the area. While most visitors arrive in Bagan by air or by road, some take a leisurely (and often luxury) river cruise from Yangon or Mandalay to absorb the beauty and history of Bagan. For those who don’t, it is highly recommended to experience a memorable boat excursion in the early evening to capture glimpses of local riverine life and watch the sunset. Environs On a clear day Mount Popa is visible from the Ayeyarwady River, as far away as 60km.

  • President Inspects Bagan World Heritage Site
    CHANGING OUR MINDSET IN BUILDING A DEMOCRATIC FEDERAL REPUBLIC PAGE-8 (OPINION) The Global New Light of Myanmar NEXT GENERATION PLATFORM 4 AUGUST 2019 THE GLOBAL NEW LIGHT OF MYANMAR NATIONAL nd By Htet Zaw Htoo (SUOE) Senior Assistant Teacher at B.E.H.S. Minemaw NE of my teachers said, “If reading a book is like growing a plant, Union Minister U Kyaw Tin attends 52 ASEAN Foreign thinking after reading is like weeding that plant to survive”. It means that a plant will never survive if it is not weeded though it is planted. O Likewise, reading is no more effective without any thinking followed up. Therefore, thinking is of considerable importance in everything we do. In fact, every subject, successful inventions and also books come from a start of thinking. It is undeni- able that scientists, mathematicians and writers, their inventions, laws and all princi- ples from thinking first. The study of thinking is terminologically termed as ‘philoso phy’. The word ‘philosophy’ has a Greek origin. ‘Philosophia’ a Greek word consists- of two words, i.e., ‘phileo’ meaning love and ‘sophia’ meaning wisdom. Therefore, the literal meaning of philosophy is ‘love of wisdom’. As Marcus Tullius Ciero (106-43 BC) said, Phi- losophy is the mother of all arts and the true medicine of mind. On the one hand, Samuel Taylor Coleridge said, “Philosophy is science of sciences”. Therefore, it can be said that philosophy is the root of all arts and sciences. In the past of the world history, people were fond of thinking. As a result, all of the inventions, principles, laws, poems, sto Ministers’ Meeting and Related Ministerial Meetings ries and books are all the results of thinking.

The concept germinated in very early times and was pre-Buddhistic. After the death of the Buddha, such mounds of relics were attributed to a special significance. Preliminary constructed as a hemispherical dome thought the passing of time it became cruciform in plan and pyramidal in elevation. Buddhism had its impact on the Central, South and Southeast Asian countries, which influenced the stupa architecture beyond the country. Following this plan, a stupa had a square base, including a flight of steps in every direction. The examples are found in various countries of South and Southeast Asia such as India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Java, Cambodia, Thailand, Myanmar, Indonesia, Tibet, China which furthermore attached circular bastions to the four corners of the wall. The cruciform stupas situated in the vast territory of central, south and southeast Asian countries focused on the importance of the cult of remnants of the Buddha and the stupas or commemorative mounds within which they were preserved, on the relation between Buddhism and trade, and the ways in which Buddhism spread along the so-called ‘Silk Routes’. The article notes a review of such stupas. Key words: Stupa, Dagaba, Chorten, cruciform.

  • A Study on the Great Manuha Temple in Bagan
    96 Maubin University Research Journal 2020, Vol. 11 A Study on the Great Manuha Temple in Bagan Wai Wai Lwin Abstract It was built by Manuha, the captive king of Thaton, in 1059 A.D. who was brought from Thaton to Bagan. It stands in Myinkabar village in Nyaung-U district. In the south of the Manuha, Nanpaya, Nagayon and Abeyadana are situated. The chronicles related that whenever Manuha spoke from his mouth, the radiance came.The image inside the Manuha temple is not a very distinguished structure being in the form of reduplicated square structure with a battlement terrace, the upper story being smaller than the lower, so that the entire building appears to assume the form of a Pyramid. The huge image which seems to crowd the temple. Three seated images of the Buddha with right hand in the gesture of touching the earth or bhumiphasa face toward the east.The incooperation architectural style of Mon- Bamar. If we said Anawrahta or Anirudha was the sponsor for the spread of Theravada Buddhism, we would also say that king Manuha of Thaton was the main source for the spread of Theravada Buddhism because it was king Manuha from him king Anawrahta of Bagan propagated Buddhism. Its symbol is a "Bayakyiswar Manuha". Introduction There are over 2,000 religious edifices in Bagan covering an area of 16 square miles on the eastern bank of the Ayeyarwady. They are different in size and in a bewildering variety of shape. Bagan was known as Tattadesa the Parched Land to the Mons. During the time of its greatness from Anawrahta to Narathihapate of about 250 years well-wishers and donors of different kinds, such as kings, queens, ministers, wealthy folks etc., successively take care of monks, copied sets of pitaka, libraries etc., according to their own wish.
