Nepal Peace Pagoda, Buddhist temple in South Bank, Brisbane, Australia

The Nepal Peace Pagoda features three levels with traditional wooden architecture, brass roofing, and intricate carvings throughout its structure.

Built for World Expo 88, the pagoda incorporated 80 tons of Nepalese timber crafted by 160 families over two years before shipping to Australia.

The ground floor houses a statue of Avalokiteshvara, the deity of compassion, while various Buddhist and Hindu symbols decorate the interior walls.

The pagoda opens daily to visitors and provides space for meditation, ceremonies, and private functions within South Bank Parklands.

This structure stands as one of only three Nepalese temples constructed outside Nepal, following the architectural design of Jochen Reier.
