About this audio guide
This guide to the Nepalese Peace Pagoda at South Bank Parklands in Brisbane traces how a temple built for World Expo eighty-eight came to stand permanently on this riverbank. It follows the Nepalese carpenters who spent two years shaping its timber in Kathmandu, and the Australian crew who later put it back together on this exact spot. Stand beneath the carved eaves to take in the scale of the joinery up close.
