Bandoola Monastery (Mrauk-U, Myanmar)
Mrauk U (Burmese: မြောက်ဦးမြို့; MLCTS: mrauk u: mrui., Burmese pronunciation: [mjauʔ ú mjo̰]) is an archaeologically important town in northern Rakhine State, Myanmar. It is also the capital of Mrauk-U Township, a sub region of the Sittwe District. It was the capital of Mrauk U Kingdom, the most important and powerful Rakhine (Arakanese) kingdom from 1433 to 1784.
This Sacred Buddha Tooth and many relics were enshrined in the Min Paung Paya, a pagoda built for kings during the Waidali Dynasty. When lightning destroyed the pagoda, a villager found these and sold them to the then Abbot of the monastery.
