Kyaikthanlan Pagoda
The Kyaikthanlan Pagoda (Burmese: ကျိုက်သလ္လံ စေတီ) is the tallest Buddhist pagoda in Mawlamyine, Mon State, Myanmar, standing at a height of 150 feet (46 metres). Built in 875 AD during the reign of Mon King Mutpi Raja, the pagoda was raised from its original height of 56 feet (17 metres) to the present 150 feet (46 metres) by successive kings including Wareru, founder of the Hanthawaddy Kingdom. In 1764 (1125 ME), General Maha Nawrahta of the Royal Burmese Army repaired the pagoda but couldn't finish it.
