People likely experienced very weak shaking there. Several smaller towns and villages are located closer to the epicenter and might have experienced stronger shaking. In the capital of Myanmar, Nay Pyi Taw, 482 km (300 mi) away from the epicenter, the earthquake could not be felt.The following table shows some of the places that might have been affected (or not) by the shaking.DistancePlaceMax. shaking intensity(*)RegionCountry27 km (17 mi)E of epicenterMawlaik(pop: 44,500)III: WeakSagaing RegionMyanmar53 km (33 mi)S of epicenterKalemyo(pop: 348,600)II: Very weakKale, Sagaing RegionMyanmar55 km (34 mi)S of epicenterKalewa(pop: 8,820)II: Very weakKale, Sagaing RegionMyanmar59 km (37 mi)SW of epicenterTedim(pop: 20,000)II: Very weakFalam, Chin StateMyanmar64 km (40 mi)N of epicenterTamu(pop: 43,700)II: Very weakSagaing RegionMyanmar67 km (42 mi)N of epicenterMoreh(pop: 16,800)II: Very weakTengnoupal, ManipurIndia75 km (47 mi)N of epicenterShuganu(pop: 5,130)II: Very weakKakching, ManipurIndia75 km (47 mi)S of epicenterWebula(pop: 1,040)II: Very weakFalam, Chin StateMyanmar79 km (49 mi)W of epicenterNgur(pop: 32,700)II: Very weakChamphai, MizoramIndia86 km (53 mi)N of epicenterKakching Khunou(pop: 11,400)II: Very weakKakching, ManipurIndia88 km (55 mi)NW of epicenterChurachandpur(pop: 47,800)II: Very weakManipurIndia90 km (56 mi)SE of epicenterPan Set(pop: 3,150)II: Very weakKale, Sagaing RegionMyanmar94 km (58 mi)N of epicenterKakching(pop: 32,100)II: Very weakManipurIndia96 km (60 mi)SW of epicenterFalam(pop: 5,400)II: Very weakChin StateMyanmar98 km (61 mi)W of epicenterKhawzawl(pop: 11,000)II: Very weakMizoramIndia100 km (62 mi)N of epicenterMoirang(pop: 19,900)II: Very weakBishnupur, ManipurIndia108 km (67 mi)N of epicenterNingthoukhong(pop: 13,100)II: Very weakBishnupur, ManipurIndia108 km (67 mi)N of epicenterMayang Imphal(pop: 24,200)II: Very weakImphal West, ManipurIndia109 km (68 mi)N of epicenterThoubal(pop: 45,900)II: Very weakManipurIndia114 km (71 mi)N of epicenterBishnupur(pop: 12,200)II: Very weakManipurIndia115 km (71 mi)N of epicenterWangoi(pop: 14,900)II: Very weakBishnupur, ManipurIndia117 km (73 mi)N of epicenterKeirao Bitra(pop: 24,900)II: Very weakThoubal, ManipurIndia118 km (73 mi)N of epicenterSamurou(pop: 16,600)II: Very weakImphal West, ManipurIndia119 km (74 mi)N of epicenterNambol(pop: 22,500)II: Very weakBishnupur, ManipurIndia119 km (74 mi)W of epicenterSaitual(pop: 11,600)II: Very weakMizoramIndia123 km (77 mi)N of epicenterThongju(pop: 10,800)II: Very weakImphal West, ManipurIndia126 km (78 mi)SW of epicenterHakha(pop: 20,000)II: Very weakChin StateMyanmar126 km (78 mi)SW of epicenterHakha(pop: 20,000)II: Very weakChin StateMyanmar129 km (80 mi)N of epicenterImphal(pop: 277,200)II: Very weakManipurIndia131 km (81 mi)N of epicenterLamshang(pop: 10,600)II: Very weakImphal West, ManipurIndia138 km (86 mi)W of epicenterSerchhip(pop: 21,200)II: Very weakMizoramIndia146 km (91 mi)SW of epicenterHnahthial(pop: 7,190)II: Very weakMizoramIndia148 km (92 mi)NE of epicenterTatkon(pop: 41,700)II: Very weakHkamti, Sagaing RegionMyanmar166 km (103 mi)SE of epicenterYe-u(pop: 20,500)I: Not feltShwebo District, Sagaing RegionMyanmar170 km (106 mi)NW of epicenterLakhipur(pop: 12,900)I: Not feltCachar, AssamIndia176 km (109 mi)SW of epicenterSaiha(pop: 25,100)I: Not feltMizoramIndia179 km (111 mi)SW of epicenterLawngtlai(pop: 20,800)I: Not feltMizoramIndia186 km (115 mi)NW of epicenterAmbikapur Part-X(pop: 14,300)I: Not feltCachar, AssamIndia187 km (116 mi)NW of epicenterSilchar(pop: 178,900)I: Not feltCachar, AssamIndia482 km (300 mi)SE of epicenterNay Pyi Taw(pop: 925,000): Not feltNay Pyi TawMyanmarNotes:(*) Shaking intensity according to the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) and estimated using seismic models.User-reports for this quakeThere are no user reports for this quake yet.If you felt it, be the first to report it!Get the Android appCompare Quake DataData for the same earthquake as reported by different agenciesThe more agencies report about the same quake and post similar data, the more confidence you can have in the data.

It has had at least 10 quakes above magnitude 6 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 10 to 15 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
