That Bin Nyu Temple
Bagan, Mandalay Region, Myanmar
The Thatbyinnyu Temple (also spelled That Bin Nyu), located in Bagan within Myanmar's Mandalay Region, stands as the tallest temple in the ancient city at 66 meters (217 feet) high, a five-story brick masterpiece completed around 1150-1151 CE during the reign of King Sithu I, embodying the Bagan era's architectural innovation and Theravada Buddhist devotion.
Meaning "Omniscient" in reference to the Buddha's enlightenment, it features a symmetrical design with terraced platforms, pointed arches, barrel vaults, and original murals including Buddha footprints, originally serving as a monastery, library, and relic site across its floors while surrounded by a walled enclosure.
Damaged by earthquakes in 1975 and 2016 yet restored with international aid, this UNESCO-listed monument within Bagan's archaeological zone offers panoramic views and serene exploration amid the plain's thousands of temples.
