The term Swayambhu means self-existent, and the stupa features eyes on all sides, symbolizing faith and peace. The temple is home to numerous architectural shrines and monasteries. To the east, visitors will find a gold-plated Vajra, while the west hosts a Buddhist statue. The temple of goddess Harati is also present, and it is believed that she was an ogress transformed by Lord Buddha into the Caretaker of all children. The Dewa Dharma Monastery, featuring Buddha statues and Tibetan paintings, is a highlight.
- Boudhanath Stupa - The Boudhanath Stupa is the largest and most sacred stupa in Southeast Asia. It is a massive mandala adorned with symbols of enlightenment, incorporating the five elements of earth, water, space, fire, and air into its design. Upon entering through the gates, visitors are greeted by the Boudhanath Stupa, encircled by a 16-sided wall. Monks can often be seen praying around the stupa, and nearby monasteries, such as Shechen Monastery, add to the spiritual atmosphere. The area also features spacious cafes and restaurants, offering a peaceful setting with views of the Boudhanath Stupa. A popular activity is walking around the stupa in a clockwise direction while chanting “Om Mani Padme Hum.”
