Mahazedi Pagoda is a prominent Buddhist pagoda in Bago, Myanmar. The pagoda was built by King Bayinnaung in 1560 to house a gold and jewel-encrusted tooth relic of the Buddha. The tooth relic was, in fact, a fake replica from Dharmapala of Kotte, the king of the Kingdom of Kotte, who gifted the tooth, along with an alms bowl and his daughter. |
