Bayin Nyinaung Yadanagu Pagoda
Bayin Nyinaung Yadanagu Pagoda is situated in
Naungkyant, Thaton District, Mon. State. The cave
was about 900 years old. It was first known as Maha
Pathana Rock Cave, later known as Bayingyi Cave or
Bayin Nyinaung Cave, as related to Thiha Kumara and
Seitta Kumara, the sons of King Manuha.
On the edges of the rocks of Bayin Nyinaung were
built small pagodas. At the entrance of the cave
were two images of Buddha that were exquisite. In
the interior of the cave there were Buddha images.
Beyond that there was a wish-granting pagoda. Then
there were two figures of the two young princes. The
hot springs are at the foot of the Bayin Nyinaung.
They were believed to have been created by a vow of
Thiha Kumara. |
