Facade

Sulamani, Pagan
c. 1181

This view of the building's facade shows that the upper storey is essentially a cube set on the first storey platform. The upper level, like those of most two-storey temples except Mingalazedi, is currently (2004) inaccessible to visitors. The lower level, in spite of appearances, is mostly a solid mass. Four small shrines, one on each side, are cut a short distance into this mass, and connected by a circumferential corridor.
