Built in 1222 by the Pagan Empire, the temple remains in regular use.

Lemyethna temple was built in 1222 or 1223 in Bagan, near the village of Min Nanthu.

[1] Archaeological evidence suggests that the temple was built on top of a foundation erected by the Pyu civilization,[2][3] which had ruled Bagan before the formation of the Pagan Empire.

[5] The building was one of the last temples built by the Pagan dynasty of Myanmar, which went into decline after Htilominlo's death.

The structure is a single story tall, and is surrounded by four porches.
