Ananda Temple is a 12th-century Buddhist pagoda located in old Bagan in Myanmar. This white temple is the most famous among the many pagodas, known for its brilliant architecture, and tall statues of golden Buddhas enshrined in all four directions.
Ananda temple was built during the reign of King Kyanzittha of the Pagan Dynasty. The terraced style of architecture with a central tower adorned with an umbrella hti, has inspired the architecture of many temples in Myanmar. Due to its popularity, the temple is almost always crowded with tourists. The best time to enjoy a quiet visit to Ananda Paya is to head there early in the morning.
