Quiet atmosphere around the temple Dhanagun. As I entered this place of worship, the smell of incense direct tasteless. That afternoon, there is only a number of people there. Presumably, those who keep the pagoda. Shrine is located on Jl. Surya Kencana No. 1, Kelurahan Babakan Pasar, Middle District of Bogor, the city of Bogor, West Java. Places of worship this is the first pagoda in the city of Bogor. That is why, the building is included in cultural heritage. Himawan Arifin, who ran the Shrine Dhanagun, do not know exactly when the temple is built. Because, there are no documents stored there. "What we know, Dhanagun built in colonial times. So we expect this pagoda reaches age 300 years, "he said. Although the temple had hundreds of years old, the building was renovated in there only once, ie in 2000. It's also only just replaced the tile and wood. Meanwhile, the ornamentation of buildings is maintained. Building places of worship is still strong. Red and gold dominate the building. The colors were still bright. Dhanagun Shrine is one of the seven temples are visited by people. Those who came not only the people of Bogor, but also from Jakarta. The atmosphere at the pagoda did not like the quiet end of March 2010, when again there was the celebration of Lunar New Year, this pagoda is usually full of people. Wasp uproarious musical instruments that accompany the lion dance performances take place throughout the day. Dhanagun Shrine located close to Kebun Raya Bogor.
