Thatbyinnyu Temple, Buddhist temple in Bagan, Myanmar
The Thatbyinnyu Temple rises 61 meters into the sky with multiple terraces and a central stupa, making it the tallest religious structure in Bagan.
King Alaungsithu commissioned the temple's construction in 1144, incorporating both Indian and Burmese architectural elements during the golden age of Bagan temple building.
The temple's interior walls feature detailed stone carvings and ancient paintings that illustrate Buddhist texts and religious narratives from the 12th century.
Visitors can access the temple through the Bagan Archaeological Zone, where regular transportation services connect major religious monuments throughout the day.
The temple structure contains five distinct floors, each serving specific purposes such as monk quarters, image displays, a library, and a sacred relic chamber.
