A bamboo is an obsolete unit of length in India and Myanmar.
In India, the unit was fixed by the reforms of Akbar (1556–1605) at approximately 12.8 m (42 ft). After metrication in India in the mid-20th century, the unit became obsolete.
In Myanmar (formerly Burma) it was approximately 3.91 metres (12.8 ft). It was also known as the dha.
