Mount Popa

Uploaded: December 06, 2007

Description

Taken in Myanmar, Popa(Near Bagan). You can see some golden pagodas on the top of the mountain. Unlike other mountains , it was a volcano years ago. People who lives on the Popa mountain are religious so there were lots of pagodas on the top of the mountain. It was very steep mountain so you will have to hike for a long time to get to the top. Taken with Canon 5D , 70-200mm.

This is almost a "fantasy" image. It's always so interesting to me to see that these places exist! Very nice! #6342420
