Smit & Palarczyk > [BURMA 25.065] ’Mingun.’ Construction of the massive brick stupa of Mingun, north of Mandalay, started in 1790. Its intended height was 150 m., but when the work halted in 1819 only the 50m high base was finished. This was badly cracked by the earthquake of 1838. Photo Mick Palarczyk.
