MOUNT POPA
There is often some confusion over Mt. Popa and Taung Kalat or Temple Hill. Toung Kalat is a comparatively modest volcanic plug thickly clothed in temples and shrines and believed to be the abode of spirits. It is sometimes referred to as Mt. Popa. But not far away is the real Mt. Popa which is an extinct volcano nearly 5,000 feet in height and covered with a recently-grown forest .The name Popa was derived from a Pali word meaning flower. So Mt. Popa means a mountain of flowers. Hence, Mt. Popa covered with trees is like an oasis in desert-like Central Myanmar Plain. Mt. Popa is an excellent place for trekking along the volcanic crater.
