Chorten at the cities entrance
First impression were two chorten in front of the city gate.
The architecture of the chorten is developed from the pre-Buddhist Indian grave-mound. Under these mounds the saintly ascetic were buried; their bodies were seated on the ground and covered with earth. These dome-shaped graves, or tumuli, of the saints were regarded as holy places. And were destinations for pilgrimage for the devotional and places of practice for meditators.
The slide photo is scanned by a Nikon CoolScan 5000 ED from Kodachrome 64 ASA.
