The temple is a massive, and all walled surrounded in forth and the temple is constructed since from 12th century. The temple is about 1600ft east of Shwesandaw and is infamous for its mysterious, bricked-up inner passageways and cruel history. The king Narathu claimed the succession of Bagan throne by murdering his own king father and his elder brother, who had been chosen to become King, in cold blood. Legend had it that the King felt guilty for what he did and was so worried about bad karma that he had the Dhammayangyi Temple constructed to gain merit and redeem for the sin of killing his father and elder brother. According to legendary tales, King Narathu supervised the construction himself. He set the rule that workers would have their arms chopped or even be beheaded if they the brickworks were not perfectly fit without a gap between two given bricks. This temple is a must visit in Bagan and popular for its history and inner temple architecture. #localguides #myanmar #mytravelhacks #bagan
