What is Swayambhu vs. Boudhanath Stupa: Key Differences about?
Swayambhu and Boudha stupas are both Licchavi style stupas with similar architectural elements like domes and chatras that are worshipped by Buddhists. While they share similarities, Swayambhu stupa contains a toran and single vedica whereas Boudha stupa lacks a toran and contains three vedicas. Additionally, Swayambhu stupa predates Boudha and has myths of emerging itself with connections to other locations, unlike the manmade Boudha stupa.
