Amazing Experience
This site features two burial tombs believed to belong to unknown royal individuals or monks. The stūpas rest on a stage made of cabook (laterite). The smaller stūpa is entirely made of cabook, while the larger one has a laterite base with a brick structure. The stūpas, with diameters of 21 feet (6.4 m) and 30 feet (9 m), respectively, date back to the Kōṭṭe Period. Evidence of an image house and other monastic structures suggests the area was once part of a large monastery.
