Shin Saw Hla (Burmese: ရှင်စောလှ, in Burmese pronounced as /ʃɪ̀ɴ sɔ́ l̥a̰/) was a principal queen consort of King Wareru of Martaban. She became Wareru's wife 1293 when her father Tarabya of Pegu, and Wareru entered into an alliance by marrying each other's daughter.[1]

The alliance fell apart a few years later 1296 when her husband defeated and executed her father.[2] Nonetheless, she apparently remained a queen consort of Wareru since chronicles do not explicitly say that she was removed from position.
