These figures are heavily covered in\u00a0gold leaf\u00a0to the point that their original forms cannot even be seen but are golden orbs. The Phaung Daw Oo Pagoda Festival is centred around these Buddha figures and will be held between 10 \u2013 27 October. An annual celebration, festival dates vary from year to year as they are determined by the Lunar Calendar of\u00a0Myanmar. During the festival, the four Buddha images are placed on a decorated royal barge and taken around the lake, stopping at villages for people to pay homage.
