Kaw Ka Thaung Cave

Kaw Ka Thaung Cave is situated close to Hpa-an in Kayin State. Stone Monks with their alms bowls line up the street. Inside you can see Buddha figures of various shapes and sizes, and all the way at the back there is a narrow candlelit passage that leads to a small worship chamber.

Locals come to Kaw Ka Thaung to have a refreshing swim in an enclosed part of the cool lake.
The cave where locals come to have a swim. You have to climb the steep rocks to get into the underground lake. Now many people swim in the new enclosed part of the outside lake.
