Most Beautiful Temple in Myanmar - The Taj Mahal of Myanmar!
We have had an amazing start to our time in Myanmar. We visit the Mandalay Palace and take riverboat over to Mingun to see one of the most beautiful white pagodas we have ever seen, the Hsinbyume (which some call the Taj Mahal of Myanmar) as well as the Mingun Pahtodawgi and the Mingun Bell.

Mandalay and its amazing white pagoda
We arrived in Mandalay with one aim in mind, finding the Hsinbyume white pagoda of Myanmar or the Taj Mahal of Myanmar like others call it. But getting to it wasn't possible in the first day of our stay in Mandalay so we started exploring the city instead.
We visited the biggest book in the world, some impressive temples and the sunset caught us at the U-Bein bridge.
The next day we took a river cruise on the Irrawaddy river and got to Mingun where we got to see with our own eyes the amazing Hsinbyume Pagoda and the Pahtodawgyi Temple.
Myanmar’s Stunning Hsinbyume Myatheindan Pagoda | Bagan To Mandalay By Bus
Myanmar is known worldwide for its stunning temples and their rich history, but the Hsinbyume Myatheindan Pagoda outside of Mandalay is our favorite of them all. How do you get to Mandalay’s famous white temple? A little over an hour away by ferry up the Irrawaddy River, it’s not actually in the city as we originally thought, but the effort to get there is more than worth it. Head to the Mingun Jetty (Mayan Chan Jetty) to purchase ferry tickets (5000 kyat per person) for a 9:30am departure and a 12:30pm return, and wait by the shoreline until your boat is called. The boat ride up the river is lovely with a constant breeze, and drops you a 15 minute walk from Hsinbyume Myatheindan Pagoda. Important: if you want this temple all to yourself, go there immediately! Most passengers head to Mingun Pahtodawayi first as it is closest to the drop-off point, giving you an hour or so at the most beautiful temple in Myanmar virtually all to yourself. This place is what dreams are made of.

Hi friends! We’re Braden & Taylor, a newlywed couple from California living with a BAD case of the travel bug. In Fall 2018, we quit our jobs, sold our belongings, and packed two tiny suitcases to find out what it truly means to live life to the fullest. First and foremost, we vlog for ourselves — our channel is a living picture book of the memories we collect over the next months and years around the globe, traveling to over 60 countries by 2020. If there’s a place we haven’t been, it’s on our list!
Secondly, we document our life on the road for family, friends and strangers alike — if our videos help pass on the travel influenza, then we’ve done our job. ???? We don’t know where this trip will take us, but we promise to ourselves and to you that we will always present both the beautiful and the ugly, because no trip is perfect, and neither is our world. Don’t be shy — send us a shout out when we’re in your area, and be sure to subscribe + hit the bell to be notified of future videos!
Hsinbyume Pagoda | MOST Beautiful Pagoda in Myanmar?
Today is our 2nd full day exploring #Mandalay and we hire another taxi driver to take us to some must see spots outside of the city.
We get an early start and drive about 1 hour across the river to #Mingun and our first stop is at the beautiful Hsinbyume Pagoda. This pagoda is even better in person than all of the many photos we have seen online. We are here early enough to nearly have the place to ourselves.
Next up it is breakfast time and we tell our taxi driver we want to go somewhere that has good Mohinga which is a classic breakfast dish in #Myanmar.
After breakfast we head right across the street to the Mingun Bell which is the second largest bell in the world and weighs 90 tons.
The Mingun Bell was actually cast to be used in the Mingun Pahtodawgyi which is our 3rd stop. This is a massive unfinished pagoda built at the end of the 1700's that was meant to be the largest pagoda in the country at 150 meters tall. For one reason or another construction stopped on the stupa at around 50 meters which is how it sits today.
From Mingun we head about 1 hour south to #Sagaing which is a beautiful hill covered in colorful temples.
Finally, our last stop before heading back to Mandalay is in #Amarapura at the U Bein Bridge. This bridge is 1.2KM long and is made completely out of teak wood.
We head back to our hotel and get packed up because tomorrow we are heading to Thailand! We have had such an incredible 2 weeks in Myanmar and cannot believe our time here is coming to an end! :(:(:(

Mingun-Mandalay
Mingun is a town in Sagaing Region, northwest Myanmar (Burma), located 11 km up the Ayeyarwady River on the west bank from Mandalay. Its main attraction is the ruined Mingun Pahtodawgyi.
The Mingun temple is a monumental uncompleted stupa began by King Bodawpaya in 1790. It was not completed, due to an astrologer claiming that, once the temple was finished, the king would die. The completed stupa would have been the largest in the world at 150 metres (490 ft). Huge cracks are visible on the structure from the earthquake of 23 March 1839. Like many large pagodas in Myanmar, a pondaw paya or working model of the stupa can be seen nearby.
King Bodawpaya also had a gigantic bell cast to go with his huge stupa, the Mingun Bell weighing 90 tons, and is today the largest ringing bell in the world. The weight of the bell in Burmese measurement, is 55,555 viss or peiktha (1 viss = 1.63 kg), handed down as a mnemonic Min Hpyu Hman Hman Pyaw, with the consonants representing the number 5 in Burmese astronomy and numerology.
The Mingun Bell is a bell located in Mingun, Sagaing Region, Myanmar. It is located approximately 11 km (6.8 mi) north of Mandalay on the western bank of the Irrawaddy River. It was the heaviest functioning bell in the world at several times in history.At 90 tons, the Mingun Bell reigned as the largest ringing bell in the world until 2000, when it was eclipsed by the 116-ton Bell of Good Luck at the Foquan Temple, Pingdingshan, Henan, China.
Mingun Pahtodawgyi:
The Mingun temple is a monumental uncompleted stupa began by King Bodawpaya in 1790. It was not completed, due to an astrologer claiming that, once the temple was finished, the king would die.[citation needed] The completed stupa would have been the largest in the world at 150 metres (490 ft). Huge cracks are visible on the structure from the earthquake of 23 March 1839. Like many large pagodas in Myanmar, a pondaw paya or working model of the stupa can be seen nearby.
Hsinphyumae Pagoda:
Just a couple of hundred yards from the great stupa and bell lies the beautiful white Hsinbyume or Myatheindan Pagoda with a distinctive architectural style modelled after the mythical Mount Meru (Myinmo taung), built in 1816 by Bodawpaya's grandson and successor Bagyidaw and dedicated to the memory of his first consort Princess Hsinbyume (Lady of the White Elephant, granddaughter of Bodawpaya, 1789--1812) who died in childbirth.

La Pagoda Hsinbyume, también llamada pagoda Myatheindan. Ubicada en la zona arqueológica de Mingun, muy cerca de la ciudad de Mandalay (Myanmar).
Astonishing Unfinished Pagoda of MIN GUN | MYA THEIN TAN PAGODA | SAGAING - MYANMAR
The Mingun Pahtodawgyi is an incomplete monument stupa in Mingun, approximately 10 kilometres northwest of Mandalay in Sagaing Region in central Myanmar. The ruins are the remains of a massive construction project begun by King Bodawpaya in 1790 which was intentionally left unfinished.
The Hsinbyume Pagoda also known as Myatheindan Pagoda is a large pagoda on the northern side of Mingun in Sagaing Region in Myanmar, on the western bank of the Irrawaddy River. It is approximately 10 kilometres northwest of Mandalay and is located in the proximity of the Mingun Pahtodawgyi.

TIME STAMPS: 6:19 Boats at Shore of Irrawaddy River; 7:40 Buying Ferry Ticket to Mingun; 13:02 Boarding the Ferry; 24:07 Docking at Mingun; 26:34 Giant Guardian Lions at Mingun; 37:48 The Unfinished Pagoda; 41:26 Massive Rear Door; 44:26 Astonishing Side Entrance; 46:15 The Stairs on the Unfinished Pagoda; 47:33 Ninety Tons of Bell; 53:29 Beautiful Myatheindan Pagoda; 1:00:10 Back on the Boat; 1:03:43 Summary and Conclusion
A mere ten-kilometer boat ride from Mandalay lies what some people call the largest pile of bricks in the world at Mingun. This astonishing pile of bricks was intended to be the largest pagoda in the world. It was never finished, and it was badly damaged in an earthquake. Yet, what remains is an incredible sight.
Guarding the entrance to the pagoda are two equally massive chinthe - the mythical creatures that protect pagodas in Myanmar. Both have lost their heads, but they are impressive even without them. And nearby is a 90-ton bell that once held the record as the largest functioning bell in the world. Next to that is the gorgeous Myatheindan Pagoda all in white.
As an easy morning trip from a jetty on the Irrawaddy River, you couldn't ask for more. In fact, just the boat ride to get to Mingun was an attraction in itself. It is a test of your balance to walk the planks just to get to the boat.
