Tong Seal - Thangmual Road

Thangmual Road

People within a society normally led reclusive lives. They were rather isolated, without much contact with the outsiders such as the Shan-Burmans. Unlike others, Pu Tong Seal believed in traveling between places, in addition to being a very adventurous person, so he constructed a road adjoining Khuasak and Thangmual, initially known as Tong Seal Road. He often traveled to Aicik, Theizang, Kalay-Kabaw Valley, Kalaywa, beyond the horizon of his contemporaries during his prime time around 1340 A.D. Many centuries later, the same route became a highway between Sizang region and Kalay Kabaw valley.

Famous quotes containing the word road:

    The heights of popularity and patriotism are still the beaten road to power and tyranny; flattery to treachery; standing armies to arbitrary government; and the glory of God to the temporal interest of the clergy.
