Peace Stupa Zalaszántó

The Peace Stupa Zalaszántó is a Buddhist monument standing on a hilltop with a distinctive white domed form that rises above the surrounding landscape. The site includes an adjacent meditation center and walking paths that allow visitors to explore the grounds.

The monument was built in 1992 with support from South Korean and European organizations, representing a shared vision for peace. A meditation center was added later to expand the spiritual purpose of the grounds.

The site holds Buddhist teachings and sacred relics that draw visitors seeking spiritual connection. Walking clockwise around the structure is part of a meditation practice that many people observe as they visit.

The site is easily accessible on foot with wide paths suitable for walking at any time of year. There is no admission charge, and visitors can spend as much time as they wish exploring the peaceful surroundings.

The meditation center on the grounds offers teachings and retreats throughout the year, where visitors can participate in guided practice with instructors. This blend of monument and active spiritual community makes the site a living place of learning rather than simply a historical location.
