The Nice Variety Of Sculpture At Kyaw Aung San Dar Monastery

Beyond the collection of giant Buddhas, Kyaw Aung San Dar Monastery has an impressive collection of all sorts of other religious sculptures, Buddha and otherwise.

One big Buddha or many smaller ones? Both!


Bloodshot brown monkey with claws, genitals hanging down, maybe holding a piece of meat. Did we miss anything? Back to Buddha and reclining, this time smaller in scale.

Outside, gold stupas and super-neat piles of leaves and branches.


White elephant with flowers and fun with perspective.

Buddha, busting through the ceiling, perhaps to get closer to God.
