Gtcal IR otca on flD anbalai? HE notes on the principal buildings of ManL l. dalay are culled mainly from the Annual Reports of the Archaeological Department and are intended to meet the requirements of tourists, who wend their way to the capital of Upper Burma in increasing numbers, and who are expected to spend, at least, three days in sightseeing. The foundation of A landalay was begun in 1856-57, during the turmoil of the Indian Mutiny, and it was formally occupied in 1859, the transfer of the Government from A marapura being completed in 1860. It continued to be the capital of the Kingdom of Burma till the 1st January 1886, when it was incorporated in theB ritish Empire, after the surrender of King Thibaw, the eleventh king of the A laungpaya dynasty, toG eneral Sir Harry Prendergast, and Colonel E. B. Sladen at the conclusion of the Third A nglo-B urmese War, which broke out inN ovember 1885 and lasted scarcely a month. Thus Mandalay is barely sixty years old, and the great majority of the monuments were constructed within that period. In order to elucidate these notes, a plan of the Palace and a map of Mandalay are appended; and to render assistance in a wider study of Burmese history, architecture, and antiquities, a bibliography is also annexed.
