Mingun Bell Review

There is a famous attraction in the ancient city of Mingong in Myanmar, that is Mingong Bell. Not far from Mingong Buddha Tower, there is also a clock in the world that is still in use. It is 8 meters high, 5 meters in diameter and weighs90.55 tons. The person who gives the watch over the clock a little money can also ring the clock with a wooden stick.

Meng Yun's giant super project was not all half-way through, and the Mingong clock on the south side of the Buddha is still intact. Since its creation in 1810, Mingong clock has firmly held the title of the largest and most intact ancient clock known in the universe. The Russian clock king in Moscow? The bell broke when it was built. Beijing's Yongle clock? Although it was tall enough, it was only 46 tons, and it was far behind by the 90-ton clock in Mingong, Myanmar. It was only in 2000 that China's Pingdingshan used modern technology to build a 120-ton super clock that defeated the Burmese nearly two hundred years ago.

1. The second stop of Mingong Ancient City; 2. In the monastery 100 meters away from the ancient tower; 3. Known as the "world's largest copper clock", of course I don't believe it; 4. You can drill into the clock to take pictures, but there are signatures from all countries; 5. Tickets are included in the ancient city small pass (5,000 kyats).

This 90-ton Mingong clock, 13 feet high, very magnificent! If you like it, you can also flash into the clock. Of course, there is actually nothing to see! :) The pavilion where the clock is placed is also very beautiful, don't forget to take a photo outside!

Will see bhikuni here, the big bell can be knocked, unlike in China, but also charge, the Buddhist people said that ringing the bell in the monastery is a very good thing, can accompany the bell to want out of their wishes.
