Bagan #2

Schwesandaw Paya / Bagan


The Towers are build of fine stone;
and then one of them has been covered
with gold of a good finger in thickness,
so that he tower looks as if it were
all solid gold; and the other is
covered with silver in like manner
so that it seems to be of solid silver....
The King caused these towers to be
created to commemorate his magnificence
and for the good of his soul; and
really they do form one of the finest
sights in the world; so exquisitely
finished are they, so splendid and
costly. And when they are lighted up
the sun they shine most brilliantly
and are visible from a vast distance.

Marco Polo, 1298
