Nepalpagode at Westpark in Munich was established in 1983 in connection with the International Horticultural Exhibition. It was built from hand-decorated elements imported for this purpose straight from Nepal. There are 48 carved columns and 48 figures representing Nepalese deities.
The pagoda construction project was created by architect Jochen Reier. Together with his helpers he encountered many difficulties, including formal. In order to obtain construction consent and obtain original components, the crew had to travel to Asia. Parts were transported with often dangerous adventures, among others the car Reier traveled was shot at.
Experts from Nepal helped build the facility. They worked days and nights to make it before the opening of the exhibition, the construction was completed only an hour before it began.
