Kesaria Stupa

The Kesaria Stupa is the highest stupa in the world and stands in the East Champaran district around 56 kilometers from Vaishali. The height of the Kesaria Stupa is 32 meters (30 cm taller than the Borobodaur Stupa in Java) and spans 427 meters. The original height of the stupa was 38 meters, but the 1934 earthquake of Bihar resulted in considerable destruction of the upper part of the stupa.
