    Must-visit when in Kalaw but not to be mistaken with caves in Pindaya with same name. Bunch of pagoda's and two caves filled with hundreds of buddha statues. Fun little trip from Kalaw. About 30min easy walk on paved roads from Kalaw center.

    As with all pagodas it is neat to see other cultures and religions. The cave is moist and small, full of buddha's and can be crowded. Free so no harm or loss if you don't enjoy the experience. Has an upper and lower cave to view.

    Highly recommend it Amazing and unique! Havent visit a Pagoda like this full of Buddhas in different styles and positions located on and inside a mountain, making of Kalaw a Must visit location in Myanmar! Just a bit cold when you have to take your shoes off but its worth it!!!

    I really love this place and its tranquility. Located in Kalaw and took ten minutes drive from downtown Kalaw. The campus of pagoda is guarded by the military and if you go there by car, it's Ok. If you go there by motor cycle, you need to stop your machine and walk through the gate. I don't understand that silly rule. The is a cave where many buddha statutes are sculptured. But the vicinity of the pagoda is really quiet and I like that feeling.

    One of the hidden gem that tourist won’t get easy to access in. Have to passby the military sentry point which we though we won’t allow to enter the army camp. The temple is Located inside the army camp premises

    Very impressive cave with many many statues. You wont expect it when you're on the outside. There is a lot of water coming from the rocks above you, so the floor can be a bit slippery. there are also a few impressive golden pagodas on the outside. If you are in kalaw its really worth a visit! Its not far from the center.

    The Pagoda has two cave temples. You can explore both of them. At winter time, floor is too cold without socks. Be prepared.

    Quite amazing, I must say. Not unusual after seeing so many caves in Hpa An, but still this one is different - thousands of Buddha statues in a cave... And quite nearby Kalaw. So it's a good alternative to Pindaya caves
