June 1, 2008

The Japanese Peace Pagoda is situated on the slopes of the Jalpahar Hill and can be reached by taxi. It was established by the Nipponzan Myohoji (a Japanese Buddhist sect) and is home to the four different avatars (incarnations) of Buddha.

Beside the pagoda is the Nipponzan Myohoji Temple, a traditional Japanese Buddhist temple which allows the visitor to experience its tranquil settings. Visitors are allowed to take photos inside the Temple.
