KEKKU

When Myanmar opened its doors to the outside world in the early 1990s, both many spectacular natural and man-made discoveries came to light to both the locals and the tourists. With the opening of its doors, ice-capped mountains and white-water rivers now became accessible, as did pagoda complexes hidden deep in the mountains and forests that for centuries had been living places of worship for the local Myanmar nationals living in the area, unknown to local Myanmar nationals from other parts of the country.
