Chin vrouw

Myanmar


We met this elegant Chin lady near Monywa she like us was a tourist visiting the vast cave temple complex at Po Win Daung. The site is thought to have been conceived in the 14th century, though cave temple construction went on until quite recently. The majority seem to be, 14th to 17th centuries, while most of the fading interior murals are reckoned to be 17th or 18th centuries. Footpaths and stone staircases link one to another. She looked so photogenic standing in the stairwell and with her purple clothes.
