Sleeping Buddha Statue in Mojokerto

No need to go all the way overseas to see the statue of Buddha sleeping. Just come to Mojokerto, there is a monastery that has a sleeping Buddha statue.

Traveling does not just visit the beauty of nature with enjoying beach or mountain only. Visiting the house of worship in religious and cultural tourism can also be an exciting tourist activity.

One of the exciting tours that we can visit when to Mojokerto is Mahavihara Mojopahit. A Buddhist worship venue. Initially, this monastery was only used for Buddhist worship, but in its development, the monastery was finally opened to the public.

The main attraction of this monastery is a sleeping statue measuring 22 meters long, 6 meters wide, r and 4.5 meters high. This Buddha statue is located on the side of the entrance of the monastery. The existence of this statue is famous So no wonder, this place is always crowded by tourists, especially on weekends.

Majapahit temple is located at Jalan Candi Brahu Gang I, Bejijong Village, Trowulan Subdistrict, Mojokerto Regency, East Java. Around the temple, there is a garden decorated with statues, benches, and trees. Besides, there are miniature of Borobudur Temple. And at a certain moment, we can see the monks are doing various activities.

The Sleeping Buddha Statue sites is a place of worship. Tourists will be able to see the buildings in the Vihara and their well-known sense. Visitors can go into the compound then headed to the Sleeping Buddha Statue. Below the statue, you will see a lot of koi fish. Tourists can look around as much.

In addition to sightseeing the Sleeping Buddha Statue, visitors can also see the other statues. There is a statue of Buddha standing until there is a small Borobudur temple. The original Borobudur Temple is located in Yogyakarta. In the Vihara complex, there is a fruitful tree and it feels like longan but its size is rather big. If you want to try, please permit in advance to local residents in Vihara. Do not forget to keep capturing the beautiful moments while on vacation.

There are also other smaller Buddha statues as well as serene gardens that will welcome visitors so kindly that the guests feel at home in the Vihara. It is quite difficult to take a picture of Sleeping Buddha Statue in a quiet state. Every snapshot there must be people who are also taking pictures. It was as evidence of the many individuals who visit both old, teenagers and children mingle into one in front of the statue with a set of their own narcissistic tools. To avoid crowded visitors, we can visit the Sleeping Buddha Statue during the weekdays. Visitors will be less so that we can freely take pictures and feel this tour is only ours.

     Because this is a place of worship, so there is no food seller inside the monastery. There is only one snack seller and drinks. So for food, I suggest buying first outside.
