Pagoda which I have thought of as a building is really a complex of buildings, gardens, and walkways some of which are devoted to spiritual rites others not.


We walked through gardens of u Japanese Bonsai, and small gardens of colors.


One fascinating exhibit was the car belonging to the first monk to burn himself alive as a protest against government actions against human rights.

We did have to remove our shoes at the part of the site devoted to prayer.
