The Mandalay Pitakataik (Burmese: ပိဋကတ်တိုက်; also Pitaka-taik) was the royal library in Mandalay, commissioned by King Mindon Min in 1857 during the founding of Mandalay as a royal capital.[1] The library was one of seven structures built to mark the foundation and consecration of Mandalay as the royal capital.[2] It was located at the foot of Mandalay Hill, and was a masonry building with teak joints.[2] The building was modeled after the Pitakataik in Bagan.[3] Copies of Tipiṭaka texts were relocated from the Amarapura Pitakataik and deposited at the newly constructed library in January 1864.[4] The Pitakataik was formerly stocked with Pali and Burmese palm leaf manuscripts which were looted with the onset of British occupation in 1885.[3]
Parapet of Bidagat-taik in 1904
In October 2013, the Sitagu Sayadaw announced a donation to rebuild the Pitakataik, along with the Thudhamma Zayat and Maha Pahtan Ordination Hall, with the consultation of Tampawaddy U Win Maung.[5]
