Mount Popa (Burmese: ပုပ္ပားတောင်; MLCTS: puppa: taung, IPA:[pòpátàʊɰ̃]) is a dormant volcano 1518 metres (4981 feet) above sea level, and located in central Myanmar in the region of Mandalay about 50 km (31 mi) southeast of Bagan (Pagan) in the Pegu Range. It can be seen from the Ayeyarwady (Irrawaddy) River as far away as 60 km (37 mi) in clear weather.[3] Mount Popa is a pilgrimage site, with numerous Nat temples and relic sites atop the mountain.
