About Sagaing

Sagaing, classical name: Jeyyapura or Atulavatī, es una ciudad importante en la Región de Sagaing de Myanmar. Está ubicada en el río Irrawaddy, 20 km (12 mi) al suroeste de Mandalay en la orilla opuesta del río. Sagaing, con sus numerosos monasterios budistas, es un importante centro religioso y monástico. Las pagodas y monasterios se apiñan en las numerosas colinas a lo largo de la cresta que corre paralela al río. La pagoda central, Soon U Ponya Shin Pagoda, está conectada por un conjunto de escaleras cubiertas que suben la colina de 240 m (790 ft).
