Mandalay, the last Royal Capital

At Great Snakes Pagoda

The Mwegyi hnakaung (Two Great Snakes) Pagoda on Mandalay Hill. It has the images of two great cobras that were believed to frequent the hill to pay their obeisance to the Buddha and above these images seated are those of two Nats that they became when they died. Pilgrims stuff bank notes in the cobras' mouths and pray.
