The Pindaya Caves are a major Buddhist pilgrimage site and tourist attraction set in the hills overlooking the small town of Pindaya. The main cave contains hundreds of gilded Buddha images, crammed into every available space within, dating from the late 18th century onwards and is entered through the Shwe U Min (Golden Cave) Pagoda built into the hillside.
