Nepal's oldest world heritage: the Great Buddha Tower in Bodha, the former border market.
The trade between Nepal and Tibet has been very frequent since ancient times. Even today, many merchants who live in Lhasa or live in Lhasa often travel between Kathmandu and Lhasa. They are mostly daily necessities compared to their previous goods. Today, they are mainly based on tourist souvenirs. The most common one is Bodhi. There are Thangka, wool scarves, various gems and so on.
Due to cultural integration and influence, especially in the area of the Great Buddha Pagoda, Tibetan religious items are very common. Thangka, Jinglun, and the thick scent of butter tea make most visiting Chinese tourists feel I am familiar with everything.
Eerie but interesting place. Full of incense but worth the experience. Enjoyable walk!
this place has a warm atmosphere that puts my heart at ease. it has many wonderful cafes and restaurant around it from where you can enjoy the stupa’s view
such a spiritually charged place. I loved the tiny shops around the stupa and the whole vibe was very refreshing
Bodahar Buddha Pagoda, a landmark building in Nepal, is located about 10 kilometers northeast of Kathmandu. It is the largest round Buddha Pagoda in the world and also a United Nations cultural heritage. Every February during the Tibetan New Year, Lamas hold grand ceremonies here, and thousands of followers come to worship. The golden body of the Buddha was recently donated by the followers with 20 kilograms of golden ornament. If the weather is clear, you can stand on the hill and have a panoramic view of Nepal.
It used to be seen in the BBC documentaries, walking under the tower, praying, visiting, visiting people and tourists, dazzling shops, restaurants, orderly, pigeons in the square... Interest in religion must not be missed
