The Shwe Oo Min Paya cave complex is unmissable — thousands of Buddha images filling a limestone cave above the lake, accumulated over centuries of pilgrimage. The Shan umbrella workshops along the main street are a pleasant complement, and watching craftspeople work the lacquered paper parasols takes 20 minutes well spent. Nattamiekan Lake is beautiful at dawn. If your timing is right, catch the five-day market for a window into Shan Hills daily life.
