The Boudhanath Stupa is distinguished by a massive, whitewashed hemispherical dome topped by a square gilded tower where the all-seeing eyes of the Buddha are painted on all four sides. As one of the largest spherical stupas in the world, it serves as a central hub for Tibetan Buddhist practice in the Kathmandu Valley. The structure is built upon a terraced mandala-shaped plinth, a design that symbolizes the Buddhist cosmos and the path to enlightenment.
