Compare the Great Stupa at Sanchi (India, c. 300 BCE–100 CE) with Chartres Cathedral (France, begun c. 1145; largely rebuilt after the fire of 1194). In your response,

describe one specific architectural feature of each;
explain how each building directs the physical movement and attention of a worshipper; and
using specific evidence, explain one significant similarity and one significant difference in how the two buildings relate belief to built form.
