About Lumbini
Birthplace of Buddha, this sacred garden preserves tranquility amid temples from every Buddhist nation—Thai, Japanese, Nepalese, Sri Lankan stupas coexist in organized serenity. The Mayadevi Temple marks Buddha's birthplace; a stone pillar erected by Ashoka commemorates it. Monks chant in multiple languages; prayer bells echo across cultivated gardens.
