In eastern and south western part of Myanmar, there are a lot of natural limestone caves mostly in large size and old age. Some caves have been regarded as an important evidences of residence of stone-aged people and their related utensils. Caves are essential to maintain fresh water resource of the forests. By connecting underground water can happen into streams. This way can create lime stone ecosystem. In the caves, rare species of bats, insects and birds are living. Cause of humans’ deeds such as over renovation, mining, killing bats & animals, caves are need to be reserved.

Nowadays, most caves are being reserved with modern infrastructure and lightening. All of them are already made as religious sites filling with Buddha statues, pagodas and monasteries.
