Buddha at the Minochantha Stupa
The temple strewn plains of Bagan have existed for nearly a thousand years. King Anawrahta who ruled from 1044 to 1077 started the building of temples on this dusty plain, and it continued for hundreds of years.
Ancient texts list 4446 temples in the area but according to a UNESCO survey in 1988, only 2230 remain. Even with the number halved, the sheer density of temples is a marvel to behold.
