Dhamekh Stupa, Sarnath


Title:
Dhamekh Stupa, Sarnath

Description:
Dhamekh stupa, Sarnath, outside Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh (India). This stupa, reportedly built in the time of Emperor Ashoka, marks the place the Buddha preached his first sermon in the Sarnath Deer Park. There are still deer, but they're behind a fence. This stupa is the most impressive of what was a vast monastery/temple complex before Muslim (Turkish, I think) invaders destroyed it. It was re-discovered by the British and has undergone some restoration since the 1800s. This video was taken during a visit by the Dalai Lama to the area.
