 Kayin (Karen) people

 

This ethnic tribe features very linguistic diversity, with a dozen related but not mutually intelligible dialects.
Originally animists, now Buddhism is the Kayin’s popular religion, along with about 20% of them are Christians, and a negligible proportion believes in Islam.  
A remarkable sub-group of the Kayin is Padaung tribe, whose women are really well-known for long necks and brass neck rings they wear. They principally live in Loikaw and Tachileik.
The Kayin are independent-minded people. Presently Hpa-an is the sole place in Kayin state where travelers can reach and expose Kayin race.
