Mahazedi Pagoda (Burmese: မဟာစေတီ) is a prominent Buddhist pagoda in Bago, Myanmar.
The pagoda was built by King Bayinnaung to house a gold and jewel-encrusted tooth relic of the Buddha. The tooth relic was a replica from Dharmapala of Kotte, the king of the Kingdom of Kotte, who gifted his daughter, along with the tooth relic and an alms bowl. The construction of the pagoda began in November 1559, and was completed six months later in May 1560. The footprint of the pagoda was 100 taung (45.72 m (150 ft)) in diameter, and the height was 150 taung (68.58 m (225 ft)), without the hti ("umbrella spire"). The hti spire was raised atop the pagoda for the first time on 2 January 1561.
The relics arrived in 1576. In 1599, King Anaukpetlun conquered Bago and removed the relics to Taungoo. In 1636, King Thalun moved the relics to Inwa, enshrining them at the Kaunghmudaw Pagoda in Sagaing. Located along the Sagaing Fault, the pagoda has been destroyed by several earthquakes throughout its history, including on 13 September 1564, 1583, and 8 October 1888, and was completely leveled in 1930. Mahazedi Pagoda was rebuilt in the 1950s.
