Buddhist Temples

Location

Among all these attractions the Buddhist Temples, Sanchi impart a distinct charm and are visited every year by various religious travelers. The Buddhist Temples in Sanchi were built to commemorate the teachings of the Lord Buddha. These temples depict the architectural genius and have the carvings of Buddha in different poses indicative of the various stages towards attaining salvation. The temples make for an excellent tourist spot visited by a large number of tourists and hence are pretty impressive among the holy places in Sanchi.

These prehistoric temples stand as a testimony of Gupta architecture besides the Buddhists ruins that are found here. These temples were built by the earlier rulers who were the liberal patrons of Buddhism.
