Ramabhar Stupa

Ramabhar Stupa, Kushinagar is more than 50 feet high. The road joins Kushinagar with Deoria. The Ramabhar Stupa, Kushinagar is built to mark the actual cremation site. From the ancient Buddhist texts the Ramabhar Stupa, Kushinagar has been referred to as the Mukut-Bandhan Vihar.

Near the Ramabhar Stupa, Kushinagar, there is a sheet of water which is the Ramabhar Jheel that completely dries up in the hot summer months. According to the legends, the word Ramabhar might be derived from this pond or the mound. Some people even associate the name with the event of Lord Buddha’s death.

Have you ever been there?

I never went there but to the Mathakaut temple. Even I have read the post about the watt thai temple. Both are beautiful places to visit.



The Watt Thai Temple is one of the most visited temples in Kushinagar. The Japanese temple is designed with Oriental décor. These are 2 beautiful temples in Uttar Pradesh. The Buddhist followers love to visit the shrines and temples in Kushinagar in Uttar Pradesh.



On your tour to Uttar Pradesh do not miss your tours to Kushinagar, Uttar Pradesh.And do share with me how you felt...

Ramabhar Stupa, rising more than 50 feet in height, stands on a mound facing the road that joins Kushinagar with Deoria. It has been built to mark the actual cremation site. In the ancient Buddhist texts this Stupa has been referred to as Mukut-Bandhan Vihar. There is a sheet of water, called Ramabhar Jheel or pond, close to it that dries up in summer. Whether the name Ramabhar originally belonged to the pond or to the mound is difficult to say; nor can it be satisfactorily derived or its relation to the events of Buddha's death easily explained.

Thanks for the opportunity to share about the Ramabhar Stupa...
