Sanctuary Retreat has a philantropic attachment to this little village - supporting it in it's needs while keeping it true to the culture of the people without westernizing a whole village. Visiting this village was one of the highlights of being in Myanmar.

 |
| Bamboo chaise longues. |
 |
| Thanaka face cosmetic used as sun protection in children |
 |
| Delight at being given some candy. |
 |
| Where ever you go there's an ox, a horse or a pig. |
 |
| This lady was on her way to make hats. |
 |
| tilling the lands |
 |
| The two resident monks survey the farm land |
 |
| Growing long beans |
 |
| More bamboo housing on stilts. |
 |
| Water is plentiful, it's just not at the end of an easy faucet. |
 |
| More Tanaka |
 |
| Is it really a school day. |
