Boudhanath Stupa

Boudhanath Stupa, located in Kathmandu, Nepal, is one of the largest and most significant Buddhist monuments in the world. This ancient, dome-shaped structure symbolizes enlightenment and the universe, serving as a spiritual center for meditation and prayer. Its massive white dome, topped with a golden spire and colorful prayer flags, is a hub for Buddhist practitioners and tourists alike. The stupa’s design incorporates many symbolic elements reflecting Buddhist teachings, and circumnavigating it clockwise is a common devotional act. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Boudhanath embodies Nepal’s rich religious history and cultural heritage.
