The Hsinbyume Pagoda was built in 1816 by King Bagyidaw (1784 - 1846), the seventh king of the Konbaung Dynasty. He built it for his first wife, Princess Hsinbyume who died in childbirth in 1812. The pagoda is also known as the Myatheindan Pagoda. The pagoda's design is based on the mythical Sulamani Pagoda found on Mount Meru, with the seven lower concentric terraces representing the mountain ranges leading to Mount Meru.
