Pindaya's limestone caves, known as the Pindaya Caves, hold thousands of Buddha images consecrated over centuries and are the town's main draw. The capital of the Danu Self-Administered Zone in Shan State, east-central Myanmar, it sits at the foot of a mountain range beside a lake, with highland terrain rising to the east. A rotating market visits every fifth day, adding a local rhythm to the small town centre.
