Rawak Stupa, Buddhist archaeological remains in Xinjiang, China.

The Rawak Stupa consists of several stone structures and foundations that reveal architectural patterns from ancient Buddhist construction methods.

Archaeological investigations between 2019 and 2023 uncovered multiple artifacts dating back to periods of Buddhist influence along the Silk Road trade routes.

The excavated elements at Rawak Stupa demonstrate the fusion of Buddhist architectural techniques with local construction methods from ancient Central Asia.

Visitors need to obtain special permits and arrange transportation in advance as the site is located in a remote area of Xinjiang.

The site contains preserved structural elements that indicate specific meditation practices and religious ceremonies performed by Buddhist monks in this region.
