Legyun Manaung Pagoda
It was built by Glass Palace Master @ King Sunday
@ King Sinbyushin in 1094. According to fables,
Buddha and Young Brother Ananda went on tour by air
in that area, where they met 500 ogres and preached
a sermon where-upon they became enlightened.
The place was earlier called Sotapan, hence its
name Sotapan Pagoda. In the cave pagoda, there was a
huge image of Buddha encircled by the ogres and was
so named Legyun Manaung Pagoda.
