Shingardarra Stupa is a remarkable stupa in Swat valley. The stupa might be connected to the legend of King Uttarasena, whose elephant carried back the relic of the Buddha to Swat. However, the architectural evidence would suggest a later period.

Dharmarajika Stupa is located at Taxila, Pakistan. The site remains probably dated as early as the 1st century BCE. The name of Dharmarajika could suggest that it was established by King Ashoka in the 3rd century BCE.
