Shwemokhtaw Pagoda ({{lang-my|ရွှေမုဋ္ဌောစေတီ}}) is a Buddhist pagoda in Pathein, Myanmar (formerly Bassein, Burma). The pagoda is bounded by Merchant St, Strand, Mahabandoola and Shwezedi Roads.{{sfn|Dundas|2004|p=493}} At the southern pavilion of the pagoda is a revered image of the Buddha, Thiho-shin Phondawpyi ({{my|သီဟိုဠ်ရှင် ဘုန်းတော်ပြည့် ဘုရား}}).{{sfn|Dundas|2004|p=493}} The pagoda is home to a pagoda festival during the full moon of Kason (April/May), marking Visakha.{{sfn|Reid|Grosberg|2005|p=133}}
