सारनाथ की कहानी सिद्धार्थ की जुबानी जानिए "धामेक स्तूप" || Dhamek Stupa

Dhamekh Stupa, situated on the south-eastern part of the monument area of Sarnath, is a solid cylindrical structure. The dome of this stupa is 93' in diameter. Cunningham gives the height of this stupa as 110' above the surrounding ruins. But Oertel, who had exposed a terrace in front of the Jain temple, fixed the point of measurement of this monument from an exposed terrace 12' above the road level. According to him, the height of the top of the dome was 104', while the foundation level goes down to 39' below the terrace1. The lower part of the structure (up to the height of 36'9") is composed of stone, while the upper part is a brick masonry. The upper part of the dome is composed of bricks (14' x 8' x 2"), and was encased by stone. A shift from the solid stone construction to the brick masonry was perhaps due to constraints of time and finances. The eight projections on the drum of the stupa are 21'6" wide and were placed 15' apart from one another. These projections have provision for installation of images in niche. The projections and the lower part of the drum of Dhamekh were adorned with geometric pattern carved in relief in typical Gupta style. #DhamekStupa #SarnathStupa #LordBuddha
