Abeyadana temple, Buddhist temple in Myinkaba, Bagan, Myanmar.

The temple features a central structure with a rectangular layout, containing numerous wall paintings and decorative elements throughout its corridors and chambers.

Constructed around 1090 CE during King Kyanzittha's reign, the temple was dedicated to Queen Abeyadana, who originated from the Pattikera kingdom in present-day Bangladesh.

The interior walls display an array of Buddhist, Tantric, and Brahmanic frescoes, including depictions of Hindu deities and scenes from Buddhist Jataka tales.

Located south of Myinkaba Village in the Bagan Archaeological Zone, visitors need flashlights to properly examine the dark interior spaces and ancient murals.

The temple's north entrance hall contains eight rows of Jataka narrative frescoes with descriptions written in both Pali and Mon languages.
