Yadana Sin-mya-Shin Phaya

Yadanar Sinmyar Shin Paya is situated on Shwebo-Monywa motor road in Pabedan Ward in Sagaing. It was built by King Mohnyin of Innwa in 792, enshrining the five relics brought by two monks who came back from Sri Lanka. The original name was Yadana Zedi. In 847 it was damaged by earthquake and repaired by King Mingaung the Second of Innwa with figures of elephants at the base of the main wall and the entrance. Hence its name Sin-mya-shin. It is 120 cubits high. It is one of the most famed pagodas of Sagaing.
