Myanmar Golden Temple & Lokamani Pula Pagoda
Myanmar Golden Temple
A golden Burmese-style temple in the east Theravada zone, with the Lokamani Pula Pagoda beside it, built as a replica of Yangon's Shwedagon Pagoda.
The Myanmar Golden Temple is one of the earlier foreign temples completed in Lumbini. Its hall has a spire in the style of Burmese Bagan corn-cob stupas and is entirely gold. Beside it, the Lokamani Pula Pagoda is a miniature version of the Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, with a white and gold color scheme, surrounded by Burmese-style cloisters and small shrines. It is located southeast of the Eternal Peace Flame in the Theravada zone, about 1 km from the Maya Devi Temple. Entry is free. Shoes must be removed before entering the hall, and clothing should be modest. The zone is large, so renting a bicycle or taking an electric tricycle is recommended for touring the temples of different countries.
