Shwedagon: Golden Pagoda of Myanmar
Elizabeth Moore
For hundreds of years the golden stupa of the Shwedagon, the pagoda enshrining the sacred hairs of the Buddha, has dominated the landscape of Rangoon. Since the 19th century, it has been the spiritual symbol of the entire Burmese nation. This text discusses the history and evolution of the stupa, illustrated by many old pictures and plans.
