He commissioned the inception of Stupas to redistribute the mortal remains of Lord Buddha in the third century BCE. This huge hemispherical dome is 54 ft. high, comprising of a central chamber where the relics of Buddha have been placed.<\/p>\n<p>The hemispherical edifice of present-day Sanchi Stupa is double in diameter. The wife of Ashoka, Queen Devi and their daughter Vidisha supervised the construction of this monument. A sandstone pillar that has the inscriptions of Schism Edict by Ashoka along with ornated spiral Brahmi characters resembling conch shells referred to \u2018Shankhalipi\u2019 was also established in the site. The lower portion of the <strong>Sanchi Stupa architecture<\/strong> is still grounded, whereas, the upper portions are kept under a canopy called Chattra.<\/p>\n<p>Pushyamitra Shunga, the general of the Maurya Empire killed Brihadratha Maurya, the last Mauryan Emperor in 185 BCE and established the Shunga Dynasty. It is believed that the Stupa was destroyed during the second century BCE, the period when Shunga Dynasty came into power. Later it was reconstructed by his son, Agnimitra.<\/p>\n<p>During the reign of Shunga Dynasty, the expansion of the Stupa was nearly doubled than its original size. This time a flattened dome was constructed using stone slabs that covered the actual brick Stupa. The dome is crowned by three superimposed umbrella-like structures which symbolize the \u2018Wheel of Law\u2019 that\u2019s Dharma. The seat of the dome is a high rounded drum that can be reached through a double staircase.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Looking To Book A Holiday Package?<\/h3>\n<p>Book memorable holidays on TravelTriangle with 650+ verified travel agents for 65+ domestic and international destinations.<\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div id=\"metaslider-id-57782\" style=\"width: 100%;
