The design of Buddhist temples originated with the stupa, which was used to cover Buddha's ashes andrelics. Made out of mud bricks, this ancient Indianshrine was originally shaped like a simple bell amound with a small spire on top. Inside the stupasare Buddhist relics.
The stupa is the oldest Buddhist religious monument. In prehistoric times, stupas were simply mounds of earth and stones (tumuli) â places to bury important kings away from the village. Twenty-five-hundred years ago, at the time of Shakyamuni Buddhaâs death, a change came about in the way stupas were regarded.
