THE ANTIQUITY OF CHAMPARAN-KESARIYA STUPA

In the south west corner of the East Champaran district lies probably the world’s largest Buddhist Stupa. It is located in the Kesariya block and is thus popularly known as the Kesariya Stupa. Huien Tsang or Xuan Zang, the Chinese Buddhist monk, mentions about Kesariya in his travels through India.
