Gawdawpalin Temple - Bagan

The construction of this temple, in Old Bagan, began in the 11th century by King Narapatisithu, and was finished by his son Htilominio. It's one of the largest temples in Old Bagan. This temple was built in a more modern style. It has 4 gates, with the eastern being larger than the others. At each door there is a figure of Buddha. At the entrance of the temple there is a really nice souvenir saleswoman called Pyu Pyu. Go to her if you want your face painted with Thanaka or if you want to prepare a Burmese cheroot. Despite her quality, it will cost about half a dollar or more than other places in
