Phaung Daw Oo Pagoda

Phaung Daw Oo Pagoda is the holiest religious site of Inle Lake area in southern Shan State in Myanmar (Burma). The huge tiered Phaung Daw Oo Pagoda is highlighted by four ancient Buddha images that have been transformed into amorphous blobs by the sheer volume of gold leaf applied by devotees.

The celebration of Phaung Daw Oo Pagoda Festival is held in the pagoda during late September or early October every year. The four revered golden Buddha images are put in a gilded barge to cruise around the Inle Lake visiting all the pagodas in the area. The festival lasts for 18 days and locals carry out energetic leg-rowing races on the channels between the villages.

At other times, the images are displayed with a fifth golden relic in a pavilion inside the pagoda, while the boat is stored in a nearby boathouse.
