There are a few different shops that are only accessable by boat. You will be taken to one of them if you hire a boat from Naungshwe. No pressure to buy anything and they are very willing to bargain.
This picture is the silver shop that we stopped at. They also have silversmiths working inside for you to watch the process.
You could also call it a tourist trap too. But it didn't have the high pressure sales of most "Tourist Traps" I enjoyed my visit and I didn't part with any Kyat.
