Not only is Katha a very pleasant town to visit, it is also the place where George Orwell based his novel Burmese Days.
After just having read the novel, it was a little unreal to walk in the same railway station as described in the book. A trishaw ride later and we were on the borders of the Ayeyarwady river, and could start exploring the town. After some walking around, we were able to locate the English Club where most of the novel revolves around, with the tennis court intact. The Club now houses the headquarters of an agricultural cooperative. A little later we also found the jail, and came to understand that it was not allowed to take pictures. We later met a guy who had actually been taken inside the prison to delete the pictures from his camera.
