Sanhi Stupa

The most important of the remaining Sunga-period Buddhist complex is Sanchi.
Founded by Asoka.
The complex located near the ancient ton of Vidisa. It is located on a hill that rises sharply above a valley, making it three stupas distincly visible from afar.
The surrounding hills are also surmounted by stupas, all of which establish the area as a sacred landscape.
Originally Sanchi's stupas were plastered and painted.
