Mount Popa |
60km south east of Bagan, Mount Popa makes a fascinating day trip. Home to Myanmar's most powerful 'nats' (spirits) it is an intriguing place. Over 1,500 metres high, Mount Popa has recently become a national park.
On top of a rocky crag is a picturesque complex of monasteries, pagodas and shrines, which you climb via a winding, covered walkway. The 20 minute climb is steep and stiff, but it gets cooler as you get higher. The view from the top is one of the most beautiful panoramas in central Myanmar. |
