London Peace Pagoda

Highlight • Religious Site

Constructed in 1985 as part of Greater London Council’s ‘Peace Year’ in 1984, the stupa was the gift of the Japanese Nipponzan-Myohoji Buddhist order.

Each of the four faces symbolises a key event in the life of the Buddha – birth, contemplation and enlightenment, teaching and death.
