  • Das Shwenandaw-Kloster (birmanisch ရွှေနန်းတော်ကျောင်း; sprich: ʃwènándɔ̀ tʃáun; übersetzt: „Gold-Palast-Kloster“) ist ein buddhistisches Kloster in Mandalay in Myanmar. (de)
  • Le monastère Shwenandaw (Shwe-Kyaung-pyi en Birman) est le bâtiment le plus significatif de l’histoire de Mandalay, la seconde ville de Birmanie. Il est issu du palais royal en bois d'Amarapura, déplacé en 1857 par le roi Mindon dans sa nouvelle capitale. Il constituait une partie des appartements royaux, et était installé dans la partie nord du palais. Le roi Mindon y mourut en 1878 et son fils et successeur, le roi Thibaw s’y rendit souvent pour méditer. Mais, persuadé que l’esprit de son père le hantait, il demanda qu’il soit à nouveau démonté et retiré de la cité royale en octobre 1878. Pendant les cinq années qui suivirent, il fut reconstruit pour devenir un monastère dédié à la mémoire de Mindon. Occupé par les Japonais durant la seconde guerre mondiale, presque tout le reste du palais brûla en mars 1945 sous les bombes britanniques. La superstition de Thibaw permit de préserver ce seul monument. (fr)

"Golden Palace Monastery") is a historic Buddhist monastery located near Mandalay Hill, Mandalay Region, Myanmar (formerly Burma). Shwenandaw Monastery was built in 1878 by King Thibaw Min, who dismantled and relocated the apartment formerly occupied by his father, King Mindon Min, just before Mindon Min's death, at a cost of 120,000 rupees. Thibaw removed the building on 10 October 1878, believing it to be haunted by his father's spirit. The building reconstruction was finished in 31 Oct 1878, dedicated in memory of his father, on a plot adjoining Atumashi Monastery.It is said that King Thibaw used it for meditation, and the meditation couch he sat on can still be seen. The building was originally part of the royal palace at Amarapura, before it was moved to Mandalay, where it formed the northern section of the Hmannan (Glass Palace) and part of the king's royal apartments. The building was heavily gilt with gold and adorned with glass mosaic work. The monastery is known for its teak carvings of Buddhist myths, which adorn its walls and roofs. The monastery is built in the traditional Burmese architectural style. Shwenandaw Monastery is the single remaining major original structure of the original Royal Palace today. (en)
