History & significance

A small brick temple at Bagan founded about 1125 in the reign of King Alaungsithu, with a seated Buddha image in its central hall. Its murals of the five hundred and fifty Jatakas carry captions in Mon and Old Burmese that are among the earliest surviving examples of the Old Burmese script.
