Stupa Fields

The numerous stupas in various sizes were built in isolation as punishments for the big/small crimes done by the local people; resulting in the formation of Stupa Fields.

Stupa fields are scattered across various isolated places around Leh. Typically, stupa is made of clay, bronze or silver. It signifies the period of birth to death of Gautam Buddha.
