At least one person was killed in the quake, which hit 25km (15.5miles) west of Chauk at a depth of 84km (52 miles), according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
While these deep earthquakes generally cause less surface damage, at least 66 centuries-old stupas in Bagan were damaged, said a spokesman from the ministry of religious and cultural affairs.
The Sulamani Temple can be seen falling in a cloud of dust in this video posted by Htay Htay on Facebook:
Photos and videos shared on Twitter show the Myauk Guni Buddhist temple in Bagan, which also reportedly crumbled as the earthquake struck:
