Stylistically, Mon Stupa is strongly different from that in Burmese art. The base is in multi-angular octagonal plan . The bases are sloping and the staircases as well as the upper circumambulatory path are absent. Miniatures stupas are normally cloistered at the ground level. The banana-liked bud at the top is more elongate than that of the Burmese one. This Stupa was rebuilt following the collapse of the Stupa due to the powerful earthquake in the early 20th century. The newly constructed Stupa is unfortunately not as beautiful as the former one.
