Lumbini Pilgrimage Tour
Lumbini, which is wonderfully placed in the lovely state of Rupandehi district of Nepal, holds a timeless and great significance as the birthplace of the legendary and founder of the Buddhist dharma, Siddhartha Gautama, who later became the enlightened Buddha. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is a sacred destination for several Buddhists and spiritual seekers. The tranquil aura of this revered pilgrimage site is also highlighted by the calm monasteries, meditation centers, and stupas built by countries dedicated to the dharma of Buddhism, like China, Japan, Thailand, and Sri Lanka. Pilgrims and tourists alike are drawn to the great Maya Devi Temple, the centerpiece of Lumbini, which shows the sandstone sculpture showing the birth of the Buddha. Surrounding the temple are impressive monastic zones, where the eastern section is also reserved for Theravada monasteries and the western for great Mahayana monasteries. With its peaceful ambience and sacred Bodhi trees, the holy garden offers an excellent space for several reflection and meditation places.
