Nagayon Temple (plan)

那伽永塔寺

緬甸曼德勒蒲甘

譯名為Nagayon Temple,意為受龍王保護之寺。位於緬甸曼德勒省蒲甘(Bagan, Mandalay)。十一世紀後半期,江喜佗王(Kyansittha,1084~約1112在位)建。據經典記載,龍王曾保護修行中的佛陀而成為佛教的護法;傳說江喜佗王流亡至此地時,亦有小龍前往保護,於是登位後修建了此寺。
 該寺坐南朝北,為金剛寶座式,風格與阿難陀塔寺相似。主室平面呈方形,北面有一方形小門廳。主室四壁與中心柱形成迴廊;中心柱北面鑿龕,內供奉巨大的釋迦牟尼佛立像,兩側為脇侍立像。迴廊及門廳壁間闢有拱形壁龕,內供過去二十八佛雕像;壁間有帶格的窗子,為孟族建築的特色。主室上有面積依次遞減的三層平台,平台四角設護塔,中央為黍形塔身。
