The Replica of Shwedagon Pagoda in Berastagi
Hello my steemian friends.
This time I'm gonna share with you my travelling to the Replica of Shwedagon Pagoda.
The Shwedagon Pagoda is the holiest in Yangon, Myanmar. The pagoda is all covered in gold-color which makes it look majestic. There is no difference with the its replica which is located in Berastagi, Karo Regency, North Sumatra.
Located in Lumbini Nature Park, it is the second highest after the one in Burma. This pagoda is the grandest and highest in Indonesia. You can reach this site by public transports such as bus, or motorcycle, or even on foot. The entrance fee is free. Do not bring any food or drink here, since the security will check your body and your bags at the entrance gate to make sure you don't bring any inside. But don't worry there are food and drink stalls inside. You can buy them there with doubled price of course :D
Do not mistake the logo behind us! It is swastika not the Nazi logo. If you compare both logos, you'll notice the difference :D The swastika logos are carved on the entire wall of the complex. FYI: The swastika is an ancient religious logo which used in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Indian subcontinent where it has been and keeps a sacred symbol of spiritual principles in Jainism, Buddhism, and Hinduism.
That's all about my story.
