KESARIYA BUDDHA STUPA
Tajpur Deur, East Champaran, Bihar, India
Kesaria Buddha Stupa is considered to be the tallest and biggest Buddhist Stupa in the world. It was built by the great ruler Ashoka. This is the place where Buddha in his last days donated his begging bowl. The structure serves as a brilliant example of Buddhist architecture and is adorned with a large number of Buddhist statues. However, some of the parts are in ruined state as they were damaged by the invading Muslim rulers. This place was very recently discovered in the excavation done by ASI.
