The Mahabodhi Temple ( ) is a Buddhist temple located in Bagan, Myanmar.
History The Mahabodhi Temple was constructed during the reign of King Htilominlo (r. 1211–1235), and is modeled after the Mahabodhi Temple in Bihar, India. The temple is built in an architectural style typical of the Gupta period, and contains a large pyramidal tower with many niches containing over 450 images of the Buddha. The temple survived the 1975 Bagan earthquake, and underwent repairs in the subsequent years.
