Boudhanath Stupa

The Boudhanath stupa was constructed in the early 16th century as a round dome-like structure. The thirteen steps of the spire and parasol were added much later. In the 20th century a small village grew around the stupa. In the late 1960s through to the 1990s dozens of Tibetan Buddhist temples and monasteries were founded in the adjacent vicinity.
