Soemingyi Monastery

The Soemingyi Monastery in on the road between Myinkaba and New Bagan. It is one of the few brick-built monasteries on the Bagan plain - most were built of wood and did not survive. The ruined complex consists of a main hall, surrounded by a lobby to the East, a chapel to the West and small cells to the North and South. The chapel is a small, square, 2-storeyed building with a door opening on the east side, connecting it with the central hall by a passage.
