Boudhanath is a stupa in Kathmandu, Nepal. It is known as Khāsti in Nepal Bhasa, Jyarung Khashor in Tibetan language or as Bauddha by speakers of Nepali. Located about 11 km (6.8 mi) from the center and northeastern outskirts of Kathmandu, the stupa’s massive mandala makes it one of the largest spherical stupas in Nepal.

Address: Kathmandu 44600, Nepal

Height: 118′

Designated as world heritage site: 1979

During the festival of Losar (Tibetan New Year) in February or March, Boudhanath hosts the largest celebration in Nepal. This Bauddha stupa was built shortly after the death of Lord Buddha, and is the largest single Chhorten in the world.
