Nga Phe Chaung Monastery

An interesting place with amazing memories from 2004, featuring a picture of smiling local children shouting 'Mister, Mister!'

Here is the place you will go if take a boat tour.

The Wooden Buddhism monastery stand in the lake. Consider to get wet-less by the wind direction, the most buddha status faces to south or north. BTW, another great viewpoint is the double roof temple design.

Amazing.

Nga Phe Kyaung Monastery, Inle Lake.
Luckily there is no Jumping cat show anymore.
The essence of this temple is a very good collection of Buddha image shrines in different styles.

Nga Hpe Kyaung Monastery lies in the North of Ywama Village, built on stilts on Inle Lake. It is the biggest and oldest wooden monastery in the Inle region.

Amazing views from this monastery! Thanks to lotus and others plants there is no waves and it's like a mirror lake! Worth it!

One of the heritage monastery, for torist attraction.

Beautiful, tranquil place with amazing metalwork. A pleasant change from the hustling at other stops on the lake :-)

Peaceful atmosphere, quiet temple and cute cats.

You’ll end up here when you take a boat tour and while the exterior isn’t breathtaking, the insides relics are. Incredible wood carving, beautiful statues and details and quite a few (non-jumping) cats wandering around. Nice views across the gardens as well.

Historical, tratational , cultural part of eastern Shane State

The monastery itself is nice but nothing too extravagant. There is some pretty detailed lattice work, some nice statutes, and a good series of artwork showing the works of the Buddha. There are some cats as well, though not the jumping variety as I had heard mentioned in the past. But the real reason why you absolutely must come here if you’re in Inle is the boat ride to and from the monastery. Snaking your way trough little canals, passing charming stilt houses with real people going about their daily lives, taking in some amazing scenery; this is one situation where the journey itself is better than the destination. If you come to Inle odds are you were planning on doing a boat trip anyways, just make sure your driving includes this in the itinerary first and foremost (especially before all the chintzy shops and hawker stands)

Famous Jumping cat monastery. Cats don't jump anymore, just sleep around the hall. Beautiful golden Buddha statues and paintings, real pieces of art. Small market with clothes and drinks.

Nice Place...Innlay Zone.

Old and beautiful

No more cats jumping but nice Buddhist monastery

A great monastery standing in the Inle Lake. Getting there just after lunch, very beautiful and quite inside. A monk was pacing and thinking alone, really peaceful scene.

It is a beautiful wooden Monastery, nice and peaceful in the middle of the lake and lots of history too ( no entrance fee) got a view from the door

It is a unique monastery. It does not great from the outside, but inside there are so many Buddha artifacts and it is not crowded.

It's a touristic place, but I can imagine that it will be very peaceful without tourists inside.
