The
tail end of the
naga
in the Stone
Dragon Hall
at
the back of the
Shwezigon Phaya
(fig.)
in
Bagan,
whose head
protrudes at the
Tantkyitaung Zedi (fig.)
across the
Irrawaddy River (fig.)
. As is the case at the latter temple,
pilgrims to this place
come here to cleanse themselves by pouring cups of water
over this naga tail,
doing this as many times as their age, plus one.
