Nepalese Pagoda South Bank

No, we're not in Asia, we are in fact on South Bank the 88 World Expo site.
One of the remaining traces of the Exposition on the former site is the Nepal Peace Pagoda, part of the Nepalese representation from the Expo, and donated to the city, by the people of Nepal, is a traditional three-storey hand-made wooden replica of a famous Pagoda in Kathmandu, it is near the Board Walk at the south end of the parklands.

    If I recall, it was one of the most popular sites at Expo '88. Pity the Munich "Hofbrahaus" also wasn't left, it was without doubt the most popular. I was very good at doing the "leg slapping chicken dance" on my numerous visits!!!!!
    Great work, Bill.
    Cheers
