Aung Chan Tha Zedi
အောင်ချမ်းသာစေတီတော်
A stupa in the town center covered in gold and silver glass mosaic that sparkles in sunlight and under night lights, a Kalaw landmark.
Aung Chan Tha Zedi stands near Kalaw Market, its body covered in gold and silver glass mosaic, so that from afar it looks like it is wearing gold and silver armor. Small shrines and bells surround it. It is not large, but it is very eye-catching, especially when lit up at night. Entry is free; remove your shoes to enter the platform at its base. It can be explored on foot together with the market and Thein Taung Monastery.
