King of Toungoo

Narawara (Burmese: နရာဝရ, pronounced [nəɹàwəɹa̰]; 1650–1673) was king of Toungoo dynasty of Burma (Myanmar), who ruled for about 11 months[3]: 278 between 1672 and 1673. Narawara ascended to the Burmese throne after his father Pye died in 1672. But Narawara died young and was succeeded by his brother Minyekyawdin.[4]

Narawara was the only son and middle child of the three children of King Pye and his chief queen Khin Ma Latt.[5] He was born in 1650. He became the heir apparent on 1 June 1664 (Sunday, 8th waxing of Nayon 1026 ME).[6]
