The stoopas were built in ancient times. They were erected over the earthly remains of the great saints known as ‘Bhikkhus’. These semi-circular dunes were made of clay and bricks. According to the orders of Shakya Muni Gautam Buddha, his disciples kept bis remains by dividing it into eight different parts and keeping them in eight different stoopas. These stoopas were sacred places of worship.
