## Image Caption

The Benalmadena [Stupa](https://www.worldhistory.org/stupa/) in Andalusia, Spain is the tallest stupa in [Europe](https://www.worldhistory.org/europe/) at 108 feet (33 m) high. Consecrated in 2003 CE, the stupa is unique in that, unlike most stupas whose interiors are sealed and contain relics, this one is open to the public for meditation and prayer.
