🛕 What is the Sanctuary of Truth?

The Sanctuary of Truth is a 100-meter tall wooden structure, made entirely from teak wood without a single nail. It blends the grandeur of a palace with the sanctity of a temple and was built to reflect the beauty of Eastern philosophy, religion, and the human pursuit of truth.

The carvings represent a mix of Hindu and Buddhist symbols, telling stories about life, the universe, morality, and the relationship between humans and the divine. Every inch of the sanctuary is hand-carved by master craftsmen — a true work of dedication and skill.

Construction began in 1981 and is still ongoing, as part of its philosophy that perfection is an ever-evolving journey.
