When you are in Mrauk u, then you definitely need to visit this place, too. Why? Because all the little stupa around the temple are ice to see one by one, the Buddha statues inside and it's feeling is a nice experience.

Shittaung Paya (八萬尊佛像塔) 。建於1535年。若開(Arakan) Mrauk U (妙烏)皇朝開國王King Minbin 所建,以顯彰他攻克孟加拉王國。 Shittaung Paya 最給引遊人的地方相信是塔内外廊的佛像,雕塑及浮雕。塔基座可分為外牆,外廊和内廊。外廊砂岩牆刻上各式各樣雕塑,有神祗神獸,樂師舞者,動物等等。暗淡夾雜斑駁顏色可以想像雕塑原來色顏奪目。加上風化的關係,糢糊了雕塑的輪廓,使看來顯得十粗糙。内廊甬道兩旁排列座佛,一直延伸到主神龕。外廊外甬道排列鐘形塔,約人身高。外牆内刻浮雕,内容為神祗神獸等;南面有男女撫摸情色浮雕。佛塑浮雕内容受印度文化影響,如外牆最南面浮雕是戰神Indra, 外廊有象神Ganesha的雕塑。 塔旁是主殿,現代建築物,塔外廣場排列數尊塔。相信現在的佈局跟原来有所不同。 八萬尊佛像塔多像數是蘑菇形塔頭,這是若開皇朝前期佛塔的特徵。 Shittaung Paya (八萬尊佛像塔) 門票MMK5000.-是Mrauk U 唯一要收費的佛塔(2018年)

The Shai-thaung Temple (Rakhine and Burmese: ရှစ်သောင်းဘုရား; MLCTS: hrac saung bhu. ra:, Rakhine pronunciation:[ʃaɪʔθáʊɴ pʰəɹá]; also spelled Shitthaung, [ʃɪʔθáʊɴ pʰəjá]) is a famous temple in Mrauk U. The name means 'Temple of 80,000 Buddha Images', and is also known as the 'Temple of Victory'. The temple was built in 1535–1536 by King Min Bin to commemorate his conquest of Bengal.[1] It is located on the western face of Pokhaung Hill, north of the Royal Palace, and adjacent to the Andaw-thein Temple. It is typical of the many Buddhist temples found in Burma: a central bell-shaped stupa, surrounded by four smaller stupas at the corners, and a multitude of even-smaller stupas surrounding them. At the east of the temple, there is a recent (though about 75 years old) addition of a flight of stairs and tazaung. There is a central hall at the heart of the temple, which can be easily accessed. Hundreds of Buddha statues line the main hall, some of them in their original positions, others moved from nearby excavation sites. However, the Shitthaung's most prominent feature is not the central hall, but rather the three layers of maze-like corridors that encircle the main hall. The three corridors contain countless reliefs of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Kings of Spiritual abodes, Devas, guardian spirits, the 550 Jatakas, Arakanese culture and animals, both real and mythical. The Shite-thaung temple is the main attraction of Mrauk U. Adjacent to it lies another famous temple, the Htukkanthein Temple (Htukkan...
