Darjeeling Peace Pagoda
Darjeeling Peace Pagoda
It is established by the Japanese Buddhist order Nipponzan Myohoji.
Embedded in the wall of the Pagoda are four statues of Buddha in gold
polish and eight carvings on sandstone depicting different stages of
Buddha’s life. Just adjacent to this Pagoda is the monastery belonging to
the same sect. It is an ideal spot to spend a few quite moments with the
sound of the mystic peace mantra ‘NA MU MYO REN GE KYO’ from the
monastery.
