It was cast from a combination of five metals: gold, silver, copper, lead, and iron, known as “pa\u00f1caloh\u0101.” Although King Tharrawaddy initiated the casting, he passed away before it was completed. His son, King Singu, continued the work and donated the bell to the Shwedagon Pagoda in 1778. When the British occupied Burma, they attempted to transport the bell to England. However, it fell into the Yangon River and was lost. Using traditional ways, locals eventually recovered the bell in 1826 and placed it at its current location. The original donors of the pavilion where King Singu’s Bell is housed were U Bo Gyi and Daw Gyi.
