馬努哈寺

規模很大，經多人去参觀，造型也很漂亮，建築本身很寬敞，氣勢輝煌，基座是白色的，二層三層上去都是貼金的顏色，整體白金色在陽光下特別好看。需要在門口拖鞋，走過一條長走廊才能進入佛塔，光腳走在走廊上，腳底板很疼，但是出於對當地宗教的尊重，不論多疼進入任何佛塔前都脫掉鞋子，甚至襪子也不能穿。佛塔內部的佛像應該是蒲甘地區最大的佛像了，佛塔內的佛像，在頂部的位置有開天窗，陽光正好從天窗進來照在佛像的臉上。進去的時候正好11點到12點的時間，向南正門的佛像的臉被天窗進來的陽光直射，帶着淡淡的金光，表情從容而淡定。肅穆的感覺。

馬努哈是一個國王的名字，蒲甘從平民到王室都是會為自己修座佛塔，從古代到現在都一樣的。佛塔內的佛像也會按佛塔的主人來修。所以看蒲甘的佛塔佛像大多不一樣。

Apart from the huge golden bowl, the most famous one in Mahanu Temple is the huge Buddha statue. On the front are three giant sitting Buddhas, and on the back are a giant sleeping Buddha up to 20 meters long. Full of contrary feeling, the temple building itself is not as magnificent as other temples in Pugan. The space is so narrow as to be broken by Buddha statues. You have to take your stomach in side to get through. Walking in the meantime, you don't feel empty and depressed afterwards - that's the mentality of King Manuha, the builder of the Buddhist temple, 1,000 years ago. King Manuha was originally the King of Thaton, a small Mongol state in lower Myanmar. He lost to Pugan in the war and became a captive himself. Empress Li wrote poems after he became a captive of the Song Dynasty, while King Manuha began to build temples after he became a captive of Pugan. Speaking of it, Manuha's temple is also one of the origins of Buddhism in Upper Myanmar.

Manuha Temple is most famous for its huge reclining Buddha. The magnificent statue of the Buddha contrasts sharply with the simple and vicissitudes of the temple. There is a small allusion behind the huge Buddha statue and the narrow Buddhist hall. Manuha Monastery was built by King Manuha in 1059, because he was captured as the king of hostages, so by building such a monastery to describe his intelligence, ambition to be confined to a small space can not be carried out, to express his inner depression and pain. After looking at the temple, I felt that the hostage king was still quite thoughtful, and that the rulers of Myanmar at that time were quite open-minded, allowing such buildings to stand forever.

Although the temple was built in 1059, it looks modern, maybe because it is still in use. There are three Buddhas sitting in the front hall and one reclining Buddha sitting behind it. They are all quite huge. The front and rear halls are too small in terms of the size of Buddha statues. It is said that this is the emperor who was imprisoned here for the first time. What is the pressure and discomfort he suffered in prison?

Manuha Temple was built in 1059 by King Manuha, a captured Mongol king, south of Mingkaba village. In the temple, there are three huge statues of Buddha on the front and a 20-meter-long sleeping Buddha on the back. Unlike the giant Buddha statues, the temples that contain them are very narrow. They are not as spectacular as other temples in Pugan. Basically, you feel that the space is narrow. You can't walk without your shoulders touching the walls. The reason why Manuha was built like this is that as a captured king who came to be hostage, Manuha expressed his inner depression and pain by building such a temple. At the entrance of Manuha Temple, there is a huge golden bowl with donations from believers.
