Cobwebs at Jumping Cat Monastery

Nga Hpe Chaung Monastery, better known as the "Jumping Cat" monastery, contained several interesting Buddha images, but Jerry was struck by these cobwebs on one of the images. It was evident that dusting the images was not an everyday activity. Many tourists gathered just inside the entrance of the monastery to watch cats jump through hoops. We saw the cats performing just before we left the monastery.
