Lawkananda Pagoda (Burmese: လောကနန္ဒာစေတီ; [lɔ́ka̰nàɴda̰ zèdì]; also spelt Lokananda, literally "joy of the world") is a Buddhist zedi located in Bagan, Burma (formerly Pagan). It was erected on the bank of the Ayeyarwaddy River, and built during the reign of King Anawrahta. It contains a replica of a Buddha tooth relic.
