The Bagaya Monastery, located in Inwa, Mandalay Region, Burma. This magnificent monastery is also known as Maha Waiyan Bontha Bagaya Monastery.The Bagaya Monastery (Bagaya Kyaungwas built in 1834 during the reign of King Bagyidaw. But it’s actually the second attempt–the original, which dated back to 1593, burned down in 1821.Amarapura, just south of Mandalay City, was the royal capital of Burma during periods in the 18th and 19th centuries. It’s now no more than a township and has long been subsumed as part of Mandalay City. But it’s still quite rural, with what were once opulent stone pagodas and palaces destroyed by earthquakes and now overgrown.The pagoda is made entirely of teak, a timber long prized in shipbuilding and boatbuilding. It’s held up by 267 massive posts of teak, the largest of which is 60 feet high and 9 feet in circumference. The floors and walls are also made of teak. Making this today would be prohibitively expensive even if you could still find solid teak trunks like this anymore.

Bagaya Kyaung is one of the famous attractions in Amarapura. It is gorgeous and looks like a palace. Inside the Monastery, there are many ancient buddha statues from various dynasties.

Bagaya Monastery is a quiet and serene place that is best seen in the afternoon when you can almost have the place for yourself. The teak building with its deep red colors also has elements made of stone. The heaviness of the stone contrasts with the beauty of the wood and the delicate nature of the temples wood carvings. Some parts of the building are gilded. Others have lost their gold color. The combination of various elements and colors give the building an aura of faded glory. Make sure to go around the building for perspectives of the ensemble that you would miss otherwise.

This place is in amarapura,which is far from the mandalay city,I hired a motor cycle taxi to get to this place since tuk tuk drivers demanded too much for the fare, the entry fee to this place is included in the entry zonal ticket if purchased at the mandalay palace.The place needs to be painted and kept well

Not like Bagaya Monastery in Inwa. It is a relocated & rebuilding place. All structure system is morden R.C post and beam system.Only little finishing make as historic.But some pieces of original timber column and footings are shown under building.Inside, some ancient stupas are there.Right now it is close!For me, as local, I still like it.

Fa oarte delle attrazioni vusibili con il ticket dela zona archeologica di Mandalay (ancge se bessuno vontrolla). Un bel monastero tutto di legno.Ha un sacco di lavori in legno a filigrana volanti, una notevole biblioteca antica di script Pali, oltre a un museo di immagini del Buddha del XIX secolo.

Not to be mistaken with Bagaya monastery in Inwa, this is Bagaya Kyaung in Amarapura. It was closed when we visited, as in - there was a barb wire fence around it and it looked like it had been there for some time. Shame, as it looks like an interesting wooden building. There is a small golden pagoda just next to it.

Its a real tourist trap. We were scammed by a monk here. He showed us around for 15 minutes and than forced us to make a donation form 15000 kyat (thats a lot of money for Myanmar). He but the money into a book in his own room, so Im sure that the money doesnt end up at the monastery but in his own pockets.
