City As An Amsterdam / Mrauk U
Mrauk U Is The Ornament Of Rakhine
Cultural. Its Name Suggests The Fulfillment Of Endeavours.
Between 1430 And 1785 It Was The Last Capital Of The
Powerful Rakhine Kings Where The Rakhine Culture Had Its
Full bloom. Shon Silavansa [ A Poet In Mon Khari's Rule
(1433- 1459)] Wrote In Praise Of Mrauk U City As Follow:
" Clear And
Cool Kiccapanadi On Its East Flank Stands Mrauk U City
The Hub OF A Land Of Dazzling Glory…., Named Rakhine,
The Proverbial Beauty Smiling Under The Monarch Great
Possessor Of The Royal Parasol White. A Man Of Matchless
Calibre Of All Enmities Who Is The Conqueror."
The Golden Days Of This City, Those Of
The 16th And 17th Centuries, Were Contemporary To The Days
Of The Tudor Kings, The Moghuls, The Ayuthaya Kings And The
Ava (Inwa), Taungoo And Hanthawaddy Kings Of Myanmar.
Originating In The Dhanyawaddy And Vesali Periods Of Earlier
Rakhine, The Tradition Of Setting Up Cities Was Handed Down
To Mrauk U, Where It Flourished To The Full.
