Boudhanath
Nepal
Nestled in the vibrant streets of Kathmandu, this magnificent stupa stands as a beacon of Tibetan Buddhist culture. Its grand white dome and gilded spire, adorned with the ever-watchful "eyes of Buddha", create a mesmerising silhouette against the Himalayan skyline. As legend has it, Boudhanath was built in the 5th century and has become a cherished refuge for on-the-ground meditation practices. The air buzzes with the murmurs of chanting monks and the gentle spin of prayer wheels, offering a truly spiritual experience. Don't miss a chance to admire the intricate thangkas and butter lamps sold in the surrounding shops.
