Cung điện Kanbawzathadi là một cung điện ở Bago, Myanmar. Cung điện ban đầu được Vua Bayinnaung cho xây vào năm 1556, bao gồm 76 phòng ốc. Năm 1599, cung điện bị hỏa hoạn thiêu hủy. Năm 1990, Chính phủ Myanmar khởi công tái thiết cung điện và công trình được hoàn thành vào năm 1992.Cung điện nguy nga tráng lệ này thể hiện sự thịnh vượng của đế chế thứ hai của người Miến. Cung điện gốc được vua Bayinnaung của nhà Taungoo - một trong những vị vua vĩ đại của Myanmar - cho xây vào năm 1553 trên một khu đất rộng khoảng 28,3 hecta. Những người phương Tây từng đến thăm cung điện cổ mô tả lại về sự nguy nga tráng lệ của cung điện, chẳng hạn như điện triều kiến trong cung được lợp bằng các tấm vàng. Năm 1599, cung điện bị chính quân Myanmar thiêu rụi trước khi rút lui khỏi kinh thành trong đợt quân Xiêm tấn công sang Myanmar. Tàn tích của cung điện sau đó cũng bị bỏ hoang phế. Mãi đến năm 1990, các dự án khai quật mới được tiến hành. Các nhà khoa học đã tìm thấy nhiều gạch, 167 cột trụ bằng gỗ tếch trong đó có 135 cột có khắc các văn bản bằng chữ Môn ghi các địa phương và cá nhân đã cúng tiến để xây cung điện. Các nhà khoa học cũng tìm thấy hơn 2000 hình Phật. Cung điện xây lại dựa vào thiết kế gốc được phát hiện trên cơ sở các khai quật khảo cổ và các bản vẽ gốc về công trình. Cung điện xây lại cũng bao gồm 76 phòng ốc. Tuy nhiên, các đồ nội thất Hoàng gia thật sự bên trong thì không còn nhiều do hỏa hoạn. Chỉ một số tòa trong cung điện là được xây lại. Điện triều kiến là tòa lớn nhất. Đây là nơi vua họp với các đại thần. Điện này còn được gọi là Điện Ngai Sư tử Hoàng gia vì ngai vua Thihathana hay Ngai Sư tử được đặt ở đây. Phía trong toàn điện này được sơn vàng. Một bản sao của Ngai Sư tử và một số cột gỗ tếch được trưng bày trong điện. Điện Ngai Bhammayarthana hay Điện Ngai Ong là nơi vua ở, bao gồm phòng ngủ và long sàng. Điện này có mái nhiều lớp kiểu Myanmar. Các điện khác dành cho các thành viên khác của hoàng gia. Cung điện Kanbawzathadi từng có chín ngai vàng, mỗi cái được trang trí bằng những motif khác nhau và sử dụng trong những dịp khác nhau. Tám trong số đó đã bị lửa thiêu hủy, chỉ còn Ngai Sư tử (Ngai Thihathana). Gọi là Ngai Sư tử vì có hình sư tử được trạm trên ngai. Ngai này làm bằng gỗ quý, hiện được lưu giữ và trưng bày ở Bảo tàng Quốc gia ở Yangon. Trong cung điện ngày nay có một viện bảo tàng, nơi lưu giữ, trưng bày và nghiên cứu các hiện vật và đồ tạo tác tìm thấy trong các cuộc khai quật khảo cổ cùng những thông tin về triều Taungoo.

Reconstruction of King Bayinnaung’s 16th century palace

Kanbawzathadi Golden Palace in Bago is a reconstruction of the original Royal palace from the second half of the 16th century.

The very ornate golden palace gives a good impression of the splendor and wealth of the second Burmese empire. It was rebuilt following the original design, based on knowledge gained from excavations and the original drawings of the building. The huge palace consisted of 76 apartments and halls.

King Bayinnaung of the Taungoo dynasty

The palace dates from a very prosperous time in Burmese history. It was built by King Bayinnaung of the Taungoo dynasty, a vast empire that included much of present day Burma, Thailand and parts of China.

Bayinnaung was one of Burma’s greatest rulers, a mighty King who possessed many white elephants, a sign of wealth and power at that time. The King even obtained a sacred Buddha tooth relic from Sri Lanka, which he had installed in the Mahazedi Pagoda. Bayinnaung built the new capital of the second Burmese empire, a large city called Hanthawadi (present day Bago) surrounded by walls with 20 gates. The palace was built on a 70 acres plot located at the center of the city. Construction started in 1553.

Records written by European visitors to the city tell about the magnificence and splendor of the richly gilded palace. Some of its buildings like the Great Audience Hall were roofed with gold plates.

The palace was looted and burnt down in 1599 during armed conflict. Its remains were abandoned, and the palace was not rebuild until the late 20th century. Excavation works started in 1990. Six mounds were excavated, revealing the brick foundations of several of the palace buildings. Several hundred of the original teak pillars used for the construction of the palace in the 16th century were found, many of them inscribed with Mon texts, as well as nearly 2,000 Buddha images.

The Bhammayarthana Throne Hall, also called Bee Throne Hall contained the private quarters for the King, including the Royal bed chamber and living chamber. This very ornate building has multiple roof sections and false floors, and is topped with a Pyatthat, a seven tiered Burmese style roof. Other buildings contained the chambers of members of the Royal family.

There used to be 9 Royal Thrones in the Kanbawzathadi Golden palace, each decorated with a different motif and used for different occasions. Eight of them were destroyed by fire, the only surviving is the Thihathana Throne, also called Lion Throne because of the lion figures carved on it. The gilded, hard wood throne is on display in the National Museum in Yangon.

On the palace grounds is the Nandawya research museum, which exhibits items and artifacts found during the excavations, as well as information about the history of the second empire. On display are a number of the original 16th century teak pillars and items like pottery, scales and weighs used for commerce, ancient coins, glazed jars, swords and other weapons. The museum also contains a collection of 16th century Buddha images in Mon, Siamese and Burmese styles from the palace. Ref:...
