Vihara Girinaga

Tourist attraction Buddhist temple

👍👍 Fascinating Buddhist monastery free to visit. There are 9 floors, the top floors provide a magnificent view over the city. There's a floor in Cambodia theme which is particularly fascinating. Buy some incense and pay your respects. Also recommended with kids.

    This is a very old Buddhist temple which has been renovated many times, and now feature a 9 storey-high pagoda. My great grandmother and my grandmother went there regularly. I went there frequently in my childhood too. Now I bring my children there every sunday. It has a nice view around the city on level 9, where the Buddha relics are kept. On level 6 there is a good miniature replicas of temples in Cambodia, such as those found in Angkor Wat, Bagan dan similar places. You can also visit and meet some resident monks, but avoid breakfast and lunchtime as the monks have to follow very strict regulation such as mealtime. You can bring food offerings (dana) to the monks if you want, at 6:30 am for breakfast or 11am for lunch. Regular meditation classes are held at night in this temple. The youth organisation conducted lion dance classes too over there.

    A place of worship for Buddhists with a height of 9 floors, this magnificent building is decorated with artistic and cultural values ​​as well as an architectural style full of carvings that symbolize noble values. It is very good to listen to the Dhamma at this temple and children can also develop themselves and their creativity due to the various activities held throughout the year.

    We came here at 2:30 pm. The man at the door refused to let us in. Nice looking building from the outside, but waste of time coming here.
