Lawka Dotha Mahn Aung
Pagoda
in
Inwa
is located next to
Myinmo Taung, i.e. ‘Mount Meru’
(fig.),
the sacred and golden mountain, which is the centre of the Universe
and the abode of the gods in Buddhist cosmology. |
From top of this brick tower-like structure,
accessible by a spacious
outer staircase as well as a narrow inner stairway, one can
enjoy a panoramic view of the area, including of the adjacent
‘Conqueror
of Worldly Anger’ Pagoda (fig.). |
