About the Shwezigon Pagoda
The Shwezigon Pagoda is a Buddhist stupa in Nyaung-U, Myanmar, close to Bagan. It is described as a prototype of Burmese stupas, a round stupa gilded with gold leaf and ringed by smaller temples and shrines. Construction began in 1059–1060 during the reign of King Anawrahta, the founder of the Pagan Empire, and the pagoda was finished under his son King Kyansittha.
The pagoda takes the form of a cone made of five square terraces around a central solid core. Glazed terra-cotta tiles in three rectangular terraces illustrate Jataka legends. Large guardian statues stand at the entrance, and four standing Buddha statues in bronze are also there. A carved wooden figure of Thagyamin, the Burmese form of the Indian god Indra, accompanies 37 nats at the outer edge.
According to legend, Anawrahta chose the site by sending a white elephant carrying a relic of the Buddha, or a replica of one, to roam freely, declaring that the pagoda would stand wherever it stopped. The name, in Burmese, means "golden pagoda on a dune". Earthquakes and other natural calamities have damaged the pagoda over the centuries, and it has been refurbished several times. Renovations have covered it in more than 30,000 copper plates, while the lowest terraces have remained mostly as they were.
