Rona!d Posted April 28, 2009 Share #993 Posted April 28, 2009 Looks like Sandamani Paya or Kuthodaw Paya Temple near Mandalay, but i could be wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_x2004 Posted April 28, 2009 Share #994 Posted April 28, 2009 Well there are fifteen books of the Tripitaka inscribed on over seven hundred marble slabs, and each one gets its own little stupa, at the Kuthodaw Paya, Mandalay. As for the vehicle...nearly called it a car...If it was a motorcycle forum I would describe it by its bike parts, four wheel drive forum then by its fwd parts, better house and gardens forum then by the house parts ... But if you ever need a decent private guide in the city I'll dig out the guys card. Cracking way to tour the town and outskirts. Hell of a nice guy. Rons go. Welcome, dear visitor!

Rona!d Posted April 29, 2009 Share #995 Posted April 29, 2009 Rob, nice place, a photographer could easily spend days. Not sure, if wls.shanghai should post the next one, but would "must be in Switzerland" be enough if somebody posts a picture of the Matterhorn? I´ll leave it on him to decide (though i have a picture waiting for the next riddle). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wls.shanghai Posted April 29, 2009 Share #996 Posted April 29, 2009 Ronald it's your turn you had the correct answer. Regards wls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_x2004 Posted April 29, 2009 Share #997 Posted April 29, 2009 Name the pitch and route Ronald, you reckon? I guess I should have asked yoou to identify which Paya entry, and which pages of the big T were in each stupa left to right but to be honest Im not as organised as Stuart N and I woudlnt be able to confirm the answer:D Kuthodaw Paya is specific enough for me:D. Over to you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted April 29, 2009 Share #998 Posted April 29, 2009 Rob - You're too kind, even in jest. Neither my pictures nor Barbara's thorough notes can answer that. I did recognize the location, but I never seem to get to this thread early enough to answer -- Time zone differences? Anyway, it is a lovely venue in a lovely country, and since Ron hasn't yet posted his next riddle, here are some more views of Kuthodaw Paya: Welcome, dear visitor!

Rona!d Posted April 29, 2009 Share #999 Posted April 29, 2009 Rob, I´m so happy you did not answer THAT specific, because i don´t recall all the >700 Stupas by name, nor the 84.000 instructions of Buddah:o (assume neither STU knows them all) Now I have three different places for the next riddle, one is quit easy, the other two are let´s say "medium". I will take a (maybe) harder "medium" one which i can feed with some tips later, if nobody knows the answer right from beginning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rona!d Posted April 29, 2009 Share #1000 Posted April 29, 2009 I ask for the name of the person, the monument with the red circle around is dedicated to (the rest should be easy).
