And Shalbon Bihar is in the middle of Lalmai and Moinamoti, which the was established in 8th century by king Buddadev. Salban Bihar almost in the middle of the Moinamoti-Lalmai hill range consists of 115 cells, built around a spacious courtyard with cruciform temple in the centre facing its only gateway complex to the north resembling that of the paharpur Monastery. Here three stupas are found side by side representing the Buddhist.'Trinity' or three jewels i.e. the Buddha, Dharma and sangha.
