Road to Mandalay


             Day 15

              After breakfast it was aboard our long boats for a day on Inle Lake to firstly see the Intha fisherman our first stop was at a family run boat 

              Building business then to a family run silversmith business then had lunch on the banks of the lake.

               After lunch it was to the Indein Pagoda Complex one of the amazing historical sites in Inle Lake where hundreds of small stupas decorated in

                sculptures of mythological animals and beings lay overgrown by moss and vegetation.

                 Then we visited Nga PHE Monastery a beautiful collection of Buddha images depicted in the Shan, Tibetan, Bagan and Inwa styles are

                  displayed inside the expansive wooden meditation hall.

                  It was then a ride through the floating gardens back to our hotel.
