Shwe Oo Min Pagoda

Reviewed By WorldDiveD - North Sulawesi, Indonesia

Only one and a half hour away from Kalaw (driving a motorcycle) this cave is a great place and the perfect thing to do before starting the trekking to Inle lake. More than 8000 budha status inside gives this cave a really unique atmosphere. it is not crowded with tourists (at least when we were there). on the other hand you will get to see a lot of local people coming here on a pilgrimage. Important to note : like any other Buddhist place you must respect a certain dress code: no shoes or socks, no short pants (up knee level) and for the ladies no spaghettis strap, naked shoulders etc... I highly recommend to visit this place.

Hnee Paya

Reviewed By champkis - Dublin, Ireland

We came to see the bamboo budda. You wouldn't know it was bamboo but interesting to see. The nicest thing was the nuns who gave us tea, tea leaf salad and nuts. We sat and ate and drank- it was very nice actually. Very welcoming. You can walk here from Kalaw town but we took a van between 8 of us which also took us to the caves which cost 15,000kyat return between us all I preferred this to walking as there were a lot of stray dogs around (they most likely wouldn't harm you but there were a lot of them!)
