The Benalmádena Stupa is a massive white Buddhist monument standing 33 meters tall, making it one of the largest in Europe. Built in 2003, it serves as a place of meditation and peace, surrounded by gardens with prayer flags. Visitors can walk around the base, spin prayer wheels, and enjoy sweeping views of the Mediterranean and the surrounding mountains.
