Pangsau Pass or Pan Saung Pass, 3,727 feet (1,136 m) in altitude, lies on the crest of the Patkai Hills on the India-Burma (Myanmar) border. The pass offers one of the easiest routes into Burma from the Assam plains. It is named after the closest Burmese village, Pangsau, that lies 2 km beyond the pass to the east.
Famous quotes containing the word pass:
“There are few things on which we can pass a sincere judgement, because there are few things in which we have not, in one way or another, a particular interest.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
