  Hpo Win Taung Caves

Some of the Hpo Win Taung Caves near Monywa, have colourful Buddha images, as well as murals (fig.).

Whereas most caves consist of small rooms (fig.), there is also one tunnel cave lined with Buddha images.

 

However, a few temple caves and Buddha images are rather modest, with hardly any colour.
