Nepal is one of the few countries where Hinduism and Buddhism live side by side in peace. But if one place in the country is Buddhist above all others, it is Lumbini, where Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha, was born in the sixth century BCE.
More than 2,500 years later it is one of the most important religious sites in the world, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Around the Maya Devi temple and the pillar left by Emperor Ashoka, monasteries built by Buddhist communities from many countries line the long garden of the monastic zone.
The atmosphere is fascinating, and we'll be glad to guide you among the monks, temples and gardens. For its history, spirituality, nature or architecture, a stay here leaves a lasting impression.
