关于

快速信息: The massive mandala stands 36 meters tall with a base of 120 meters in diameter. It's one of the largest spherical stupas globally, surrounded by a bustling area full of prayer wheels and vibrant Tibetan flags.

亮点: Look closely at the stupa's eyes painted on all four sides; they symbolize Buddha's omnipresence watching over the city. At sunset, hundreds of Buddhists and pilgrims perform 'kora'—a traditional circumnavigation spinning prayer wheels and chanting mantras, creating a mesmerizing and spiritual atmosphere.

内部小贴士

Wear comfortable shoes for walking on uneven stone paths around the stupa.
Visit during prayer sessions for a richer cultural experience and photo opportunities.
Avoid noon when the site gets crowded and the sun overhead is harsh for photos.
Respect local customs by dressing modestly and removing shoes before entering temple areas.
