Central part of the Older Brother's pagoda. This pagoda (situated in the complex of
Shwedagon) is built where the first pagoda was built 2 500 years ago. The pagoda
had to shelter relics returned by 2 Burmese brothers who met Buddha during a journey to India.
Thereafter, the relics were inserted in the new Shwedagon pagoda.
