Do not confuse it with the temple of the same name, which is only a two-minute walk from the hotel and is a small brick church or monastery. Damaged in the August 2016 earthquake. They told us it contained some murals but we only saw them outside. Currently, the temple is undergoing extensive maintenance work, so it is worth waiting for the repair work to be completed before visiting unless you don’t mind scaffolding here and there. The temple is known for its unique shape (compared to other Bagan temples) and for its beautiful interior frescoes (repairs are currently underway). But if you are visiting the temple of Ananda (unlike this temple...the beautiful temple of Ananda is called Ananda Paye by the locals, and this Ananda Okjan - pronounced Okjong, they will say "k" like "j" Myanmar), then you can swing here, Because they are adjacent to each other. In addition, the area also has a delicious restaurant and a restaurant that treats the moon and animal vegetables well.

    [View] It used to be a place to climb the stone steps of the five-story Buddhist tower and watch the sunset, but now it can no longer be climbed. The tower is magnificent and worth seeing. [Fun] Ananda Ok Kyaung is beautiful

    Built in 1775, it is a representative work of the late period of the decline of traditional art in Myanmar and the period of architectural rebirth. The temple has brilliant murals, which depict life in the 18th century in detail, some with Portuguese merchants.

    This temple is the same name as the Ananda Temple. Be careful not to get confused. The two temples are very close and walk for a few minutes. There are exquisite murals in the temple. If you have time, you can come and see it.

    AnandaOkKyaung is a brick temple located at the main entrance of Ananda Temple, just next to the famous Ananda, a small temple, the murals are very beautiful, in order to protect the murals, so it is forbidden to take pictures here.
