Shin-bin Nan-kaing Pagoda

Shin Bin Nan Kaing Pagoda is situated near Htonbo Ward in Sagaing. It was built by minister Kyan Thaing, who had to look after Shwe Ain Si, the daughter of King Kyansittha, in 420.

But in another version, it was said to be built by Minister Kyan Thaing, right-hand sage to King Sawlu in 421. It was officially named Yan Aung Myin Pagoda but ever since its foundation on Nan-kaing hill, it has been known as Shin-bin Nan-kaing Pagoda. Near it is a bronze staue of Buddha that is the highest in Myanmar, cast under the leadership of Sayadaw U Zanainda of Zabu Mingala Monastery.
