The construction of an 84-feet tall statue of Lord Gautam Buddha in Panchpokhari Thangpal village in Sindhupalchok has been accelerated.
Village Chairman Tashi Lama said that the statue being built in Yungba Dong (big stone) located in Rural Municipality-7 Bhotenamlang in Panchpokhari Thangpal is considered important from a religious, cultural and tourist point of view.
The municipality has started construction of the statue four years ago as a plan for Gaurav. "The construction of the statue is being done from a single stone, currently the construction of the head of Buddha is finished", he said. According to
President Lama, the estimated cost of the project is Rs. He informed that the statue of Buddha is being constructed with the help of the coordination of rural municipality, Bagmati Province and the technical side of the National Academy of Fine Arts.
"Usually idols are made by joining pieces of stone, but we are making idols from a single stone", he said. He says that this plan has been put forward to promote religious tourism here, to support the economic prosperity of the locals and to make Panchpokhari Thangpal known as a spiritual land and an international destination. Chairman Lama said that the names of those who financially support the construction of the statue will be written on the stone.
