Jumping Cat Monastery Cats jump through hand-held hoops held by monks at Nga Phe Kyaung or "Jumping Cat Monastery" close to the Ywama village and floating market. The Monastery is wooden, built on stilts and the monks have trained their cats to jump through hoops. #Burma #Myanmar #monastery #cats

Inle Lake (Burma) Myanmar The fishermen of this region are famous for their leg rowing technique, standing on the stern on one leg and wrapping the other leg around the oar. This upright rowing technique, allows him to navigate his boat through the lake's dense hyacinth weed. #Burma #Myanmar
An Intha fisherman on Inle Lake Burma is rowing his boat silhouetted against the sun. With the oar tucked under his armpit and the shaft braced against the calf of his leg, he sculls with confidence and skill learned in childhood. This upright rowing technique, which is unique to the Intha, allows him to navigate his boat through the lake's dense hyacinth weed.
