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:
“Such were the first rude beginnings of a town. They spoke of the practicability of a winter road to the Moosehead Carry, which would not cost much, and would connect them with steam and staging and all the busy world. I almost doubted if the lake would be there,—the self-same lake,—preserve its form and identity, when the shores should be cleared and settled; as if these lakes and streams which explorers report never awaited the advent of the citizen.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
