I WENT on a field survey with geology students in 2017 to Ywangan Region in Danu Self Adminis-tered Zone. Ywangan Town is at an elevation of 4,028 ft. above sea level. It was formed with 28 village tracts and had a popula-tion of more than 82,000. It was in Shan State south and can be reached from Aungban-Pindaya road junction. As Ywangan town was surrounded by unspoilt nat-ural beauties it was considered as a virgin land. It is a land where peace and tranquillity prevails.
