The Largest Stupa in the world - Boudha Stupa

With diameter of about 100m and 40m height, Buddhanath holds its place among the largest stupas in the world. The Buddhanath stupa covers a vast area. It has a round path at the bottom while another path is made of three-tier plinth.

 

The stupa resembles Swayambhunath stupa to some extent. Although similar in design to its smaller counterpart, Swayambhu, Boudha has a rounded top to its dome whereas Swayambhu's is flat.
