| The Shweyattaw Buddha image is located approximately half way up the southern approach to Mandalay Hill. It was built by U Kanti, the revered hermit of Mandalay Hill, to house an enormous standing image of Gautama Buddha that dramatically points to the royal palace on the plain below - the reification of the Buddha’s prophecy that a great Buddhist metropolis would appear there. |
