lihat fotoLocated at the foot of Mount Sibayak, in this place there are garden
decorations and cool air.
Lumbini Natural Park Pagoda is inspired by the Shwedagon Pagoda, Myanmar.
This pagoda building project was successfully completed in 2010 with a height
of 48.8 meters, a length and width of 68 meters each.
Lumbini Natural Park Pagoda can also be said to be a replica of the Shwedagon
Pagoda because it is the second tallest pagoda among other pagodas outside
Myanmar.
Pagodas are temples whose roofs are piled up and are usually used for Buddhist
worship.
However, Lumbini Park Pagoda can be visited by anyone with a predetermined
time.
This is intended so as not to interfere with worship time.
Lumbini Park Pagoda is the same as Shwedagon Pagoda, which is a place to
store various relics of the Buddha, Arahats, and thousands of Buddha statues
from various countries. (1)(2)

Lumbini Park Pagoda has been under construction since 2007 and was completed
in 2010.
In its inauguration, the Shwedagon Pagoda Replica received a MURI record in
the category of Punja Bakti or the most blessings attended by thousands of
members of the sangha.
During the inauguration, 1,250 members of the sangha were attended, which also
consisted of 100 monks from Indonesia, 650 members from Burma, Myanmar
and 400 members from Thailand.
The clergy from other countries who came reached about 20 countries.
The name Lumbini is taken from a place called Lumbini at the foot of Mount
Humalaya, Nepal.
Lumbini is the birthplace of Siddhartha Gautama in Nepal.

The attraction of this tourist attraction is its magnificent and beautiful building.
Almost the entire building is covered with gold paint.
This pagoda has an area of 3,000 hectares with a height of 46.8 meters, length
and width of 68 meters.
There is an entrance with ethnic designs carved by artists in Myanmar.
This place which is also used for worship holds many relics which are the
remains of the ashes of the holy people's burning.
The relic is placed on top of the pagoda building.
Visitors other than Buddhists can also enter and tour this area when there are no
worship activities.
This tourist attraction has won the MURI record as the highest pagoda in
Indonesia.
