Myatheindan Pagoda

緬登旦塔

緬甸曼德勒

譯名為Myatheindan Pagoda,又稱辛比梅塔(Hsinbyume Pagoda)。位於緬甸曼德勒城(Mandalay)。一八一六年,貢榜王朝(Konbaung,1752~1885)孟既王(Bagyidaw,1819~1837在位)興建,以紀念其往生的王妃。為散布在明宮塔(Mingun Pagoda)附近各佛塔中規模最大者。
 該塔為覆鉢式塔,塔基周長達98公尺,平面呈圓形,共七層如波浪起伏的彎拱,並有三道拱頂階梯;再上為四重平台,平面亦呈圓形,第一、二層較高大,第三、四層各有四座小護塔。覆鉢塔身逐漸收分為圓錐形,連接塔剎及寶傘。此塔造型源自佛教宇宙觀,七層彎拱象徵圍繞須彌山的七重山脈及七重大海,最高一層即為踰健達羅山(Yugamdhara);主塔為須彌山,即帝釋天的居所。三道階梯則寓意佛陀從忉利天宮返回人間時,帝釋天為其建造的三道天梯。除主塔及護塔的塔剎為金色外,全塔作白色,銀裝素裹,莊嚴壯觀。
