Not knowing when they developed the unique leg-rowing technique, and only some 7,000 of them, live in 4 cities boarding the Inle Lake, the Intha, is without question one of the most spectacular Burmese highlights.
Inle Lake is rather shallow with averaged depth just around 2.1m (7 ft.) in dry season and 3.7m (12 ft.) in raining season. The lake is full of water plants, and the Intha use it as field to grow rice and vegetable, the most favorite being the tomatoes. But however, the Intha are primary fisherman (nga hpein – Inle Carp. – Cyprinus Intha), the remaining time spending on the fields and while season has changed, they are working as silversmith or making ceramics.
