Restoring Pahtoedawgyi Pagoda Near Mandalay

Pahtoedawgyi Pagoda is a beautiful stupa that got a little restoration love in the spring of 2019. It's located in the Amarapura area, south of Mandalay city. Built in 1819, still going strong.

Park the tour bus and go have a look. Let the sleeping dog lie.


The main stupa, covered in bamboo scaffolding. Like a lattice cap.

The construction, inadvertently mixing religious motifs.


Navigating supplies, a touchy job for the crew.

A Buddha statue out back enjoying its umbrella setting.
