YANGON, Jan. 29 (Xinhua) -- A video shooting group of the Korea Broadcasting System (KBS) will come to Myanmar for the second time to shoot a documentary video on Myanmar's Theravada Buddhism called "Road to Nibbana", the local weekly Pyi Myanmar reported Thursday.

    Directed by Byan Choonho, the video will be shot in the country's famous Inlay Water Village located in northern Shan State.

    The documentary will not only feature the life of Buddhist followers in the Inlay region but also the daily life of local inhabitants most of whom are fishermen, the report said.

    Inlay region is known as an area of outstanding natural beauty and famous for its environment and villages in the region sit on floating islands on the lake. Colorful hill tribes inhabit the surrounding fertile valleys and forested mountaintops and their hand-woven silks are a specialty of the region.

    In November last year, the KBS group had also come to Myanmar and video Myanmar's ancient city of Bagan where over 2,000 pagodas and monasteries lie.

    Myanmar and South Korea have been cooperating in the sector of culture with Korean film week also being held in Myanmar annually.
