About Kesaria Stupa

Kesaria Stupa is one of the tallest and oldest Buddhist stupas in the world, dating back to the Ashoka period around the 3rd century BCE. Located in the remote village of Kesaria in East Champaran district, it stands approximately 51 meters high and is built on a massive brick platform, representing an exceptional example of ancient Buddhist architecture. The stupa is believed to have been constructed to commemorate Lord Buddha's visit to the region.
