The road to Mahamuni from Mrauk-U passes through and halves
Vesali. Taking this road, the south wall of Vesali can be seen at
the distance of four and half miles from Mrauk-U. Just in front of
the wall is a hill on which Thaunggyat-taw pagoda stands. At the top
of the ridge extending the southwest of Thaunggyat-taw pagoda is a
stupa from where a stone inscription containing Ye Dhamma verse was
found in May, 1965.
In 1957, the stone inscription of Niticandra's
queen was recovered from a ruined stupa at Unhissaka hill north of
Thaung-gyat-taw pagoda. In that year, Viracandra's inscription was
found at a ruined stupa on a hill north of Unhissaka hill. The
letters in these inscriptions closely resemble to those used before
six-century. The names of Niticandra and Viracandra are inscribed on
Anandacandra inscriptions.
