Have you ever seen four Buddhas standing back-to-back? At Lay Myat Nar Phaya in Bago, you can. This temple houses four imposing Buddha images, each facing a different cardinal direction. Lay Myat Nar Phaya echoes the design of the Ananda Phaya in Bagan, offering a powerful visual experience. The temple grounds offer more than just the central figures. A peaceful garden surrounds the main structure. Within the garden, 28 Buddha statues sit in quiet meditation, representing Siddhartha Gautama and the 27 Buddhas who came before him. Each statue displays the bhumisparsa mudra, the earth-touching gesture. Towards the north, a tower-like structure rises skyward. It depicts a scene of Buddha’s descent from Tavatimsa Heaven, a vibrant moment captured in effigies. Lay Myat Nar Phaya is more than just a temple. It is a place of reflection, a visual representation of Buddhist history and belief.
