The beautiful Buddhist monastery and Peace Pagoda is located near the top of the Jalapahar Hill, about 2 km from the Darjeeling Clock Tower.

Mesmerizing view, serene peace and awesome place with tall pine trees and rhododendron bushes just beginning to flower, and with the majestic Kanchenjunga mountains as the backdrop.

Do visit the pagoda in early morning hours in order to feel its sanctity and peace. The breathtaking views of Kanchenjunga are another bonus. A very calm and serene atmosphere embrace you and leaves you so full of the ambience of the place.

Right at the end, a narrow road leads to the peace Pagoda. Draped in white it exudes positivity and calmness. Came here during the wee hours of the morning to avoid the crowd. Plus the view of the Kanchenjunga is great.

One of the key places to visit in Darjeeling. This place has a sense of calmness. There is Japanese temple here as well where we can read about the history of Buddhism and also about the other peace pagoda in India.

It is a Japanese Temple beautifully structured at the top of a point. Best time to visit here during clear skies as you can see a beautiful view walking some distance away from the temple as shown in the third picture though when I went there clouds were all around. Usually busy nowadays because it is a famous and a renowned temple of Darjeeling. A highly recommended place from mine side as you can get some good vibes from here.

Peace Pagoda, Darjeeling or is one of the Japanese Peace Pagoda, which is the tallest free standing structure of Darjeeling showcasing 4 avatars of Buddha. While from the top of the pagoda, you get the Panoramic views of Darjeeling's beautiful landscape along with the peaks of the forever snow capped Kanchenjunga range.

One of the must visit place in Darjeeling. It is located in the Jalapahar hills built by Nichidatsu Fujii, a buddhist monk from Japan. It has four avatar of buddha constructed in gold plated polish. The place is surrounded by beautiful serene as we had visited in the month of july we could see clearly. There are beautiful pine trees and the Kanchenjunga mountains were slighty visible. The road towards this is narrow. I am not sure how will be the situation during seasonal.

You'll get 2 of the 7 point sightseeing package at the same place, Japanese temple and Peace Pagoda. Parking is available and the view is really nice. We experienced being within clouds here. The place and view is really nice. You don't have to walk a lot as well. No ticket service is there, you can visit for free. And you need to remove your shoes before entering both of these places.

Enjoy the Peace Pagoda and the Buddhist Temple at Darjeeling. We visited in the evening when there was almost vacant! The place has some amazing views to enjoy, but we were unlucky due to cloudy weather. The peace pagoda was initiated by Fuji Guruji after he witnessed the bombing at Hiroshima & Nagasaki and was inaugurated on 1972. The beautiful place has depicted the life of Gautam Buddha through some amazing sculptures. The place is well maintained, and the Buddhist Temple is well decorated.

Also known as Nipponzan Myohoji Buddhist Temple, the shrine was built in 1972 and is located 10 minutes away from the Darjeeling town centre, on the hill of Jalapahar.

A peaceful tourist spot. A clear view of Kanchanjangha can be seen from here.

A beautiful Buddhist stupa & a Japanese temple located in the same compound. The stupa also depicts the 4 life stages of Buddha with statues and carvings on the painting. The compound is very peaceful and I would recommend visiting this place in the evening to watch the sun set over the beautiful city of Darjeeling.

There are several Peace Pagodas at Many Places this one is in Darjeeling. Beautiful Place. Tourist attraction in Darjeeling. Driving in Darjeeling city and around is very risky due to steep climbs .slopes. Instead of Roaming in our car we preferred a taxi. Hire taxi and he will show you all the tourists attraction places of Darjeeling in one day.

Awesome ambience. Peace Pagoda makes you really peaceful because of the scenic beauty of the place. Roads will become much narrow to reach there in public holidays. Else the place brings peace in your mind.

Loved it.. we went on a foggy day.. but yet it was beautiful.. huge trees and Misty views... The pagoda also has interesting sculpture to convey a good message. The only problem is that the road to the pagoda is narrow and can get blocked very easily. Worth a visit .
