Shwenandaw Kyaung at the foot of Mandalay Hill (fig.), and which in English is known as the Golden Palace Monastery. The outside of this wooden edifice is deco-rated with countless carved statuettes of natsaw.

Natsaw are Burmese angelic beings that are erected to protect both the building and the people residing within it (fig.). Being a former palace building, which after the death of King Mindon Min (fig.) in 1878 AD was relocated from the Mandalay Royal Palace (fig.), the royal edifice features a stone mango staircase (fig.) leading up to the monastery.
