First of all world peace pagoda is in pokhara nepal and not in lumbini. If youre pokhara you must go to the peace pagoda. Two ways to go, the easy way is taking a cab up and just enjoying the amazing view on top of the himalayam mountain range and phewa tal from one side and another amazing voew to the other side. The second way to go to world peace pagoda is by taking a boat from any port in pokhara the town to the other side and hike the trail up to world peace pagoda which take around 45 mns approximately depending on the pace, and in the hike youll get to enjoy the amazing view every step of the way of the lake On short world peace pagoda on a clear day is like heaven

We are a family of 8, with one toddler. Three of us went to peace pagoda on a trek from lakeside via boating for few meters first and then walking the rest of the trek uphill. Rest went via Toyota Hiace via road. How’s lever you reach, you need to trek uphill approx 450 stairs from the parking area - trek is not difficult but certainly tiring. Best part is when you reach the top and see the peace pagoda with Annapurna range clear view, snow clad mountains, fishtail and the overall environment is so peaceful and amazing to experience for sure! Once you reach - it is all worth your time and efforts.

This is miracle and a top attraction in Lumbini. Birth place of Lord Gautam Buddha is really peaceful and lovely. Places are very well preserved and decorated by many friendly Bouddhist nations near Nepal. I loved my visit to Lumbini.

The temple has a magnificent view from outside, same as other Korean temples. As some repair work was going on during our visit, we were unable to visit this temple inside.
