Pagan
Pagan (burmesiska: ပုဂံ) är ett ruinområde i området Mandalay i Myanmar som består av omkring 2500 buddhistiska byggnader. Pagan grundades 847 och var mellan1044 och 1289 huvudstad i Paganriket. Kung Anawrahta införde på 1000-talet buddhismen i Myanmar och gjorde då Pagan till landets religiösa centrum. Den omfattande byggnadsverksamheten var negativt för ekonomin och efter ett mongolanfall 1287 förföll staden.[1]
