#KesariyaStupa was one of the earliest #BuddhistStupas. Although some historians believe that the stupa belongs to Ashoka's period, the stupa mound may even have been inaugurated during the Buddha's time, as it corresponds in many respects to the description of the stupa erected by the Licchavis of Vaishali to house the alms bowl the Buddha has given them
