The Battle of Pagan was fought in 1287 between Kublai Khan's Mongol Yuan dynasty of China, and their neighbors to the south, the Pagan Empire.
The battle was initiated by the Mongols, who sensed opportunity in the political turmoil caused by their successful 1283 invasion of the Pagan Empire in the Battle of Bhamo.
