After Alexander’s campaigns and the rise of Greco-Buddhist art in Gandhara, motifs such as floral scrolls, Corinthian-style pillars, and figures in Hellenistic drapery made their way into Indian Buddhist architecture. The Sanchi railings and toranas show how Indian and Greek artistic traditions blended to create something truly unique. 📍 Located in Madhya Pradesh, India, Sanchi remains a living testimony to how Buddhism spread and evolved through art, architecture, and cross-cultural exchange.
