A Nepali Buddhist monk cleans the dome of Boudhanath Stupa, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Kathmandu, Nepal, on August 27, 2025. Boudha Stupa is semicircle-shaped and contains the relics and remains of Buddha. The stupa's massive mandala makes it one of the largest spherical stupas in the world. Boudha Stupa is listed in the world heritage list by UNESCO in 1979, and it is one of the most popular tourist sites in Kathmandu. The stupa dates from 600 AD and is built by a Tibetan king. The stupa is a historical pilgrimage site for Buddhists around the world. The stupa is built using many kilograms of gold for decoration. The giant Boudhanath Stupa serves as a gateway to heaven, acting as a horizon between the earth and sky. The base of the stupa structure consists of three large platforms decreasing in size. These platforms symbolize the sky, whereas the circular vase supporting the semi-sphere signifies water. The eyes of Buddha painted on the stupa are described as inscrutable, impassive, empathetic, and shrewd. The five most promising elements representing Buddha, i.e., earth, air, water, fire, and space, are comprised in the stupa architecture.
