We welcome you to this birthplace of Lord Gautam Buddha. The founder of Buddhism, this legendary deity is believed to get his birth in Kapilvastu, Lumbini district of Nepal. He lived a carefree life as a princess in his hometown and then absconded from this place to nowhere in search of peace and non – violence. Later, he was found to be meditating under a holy tree, which is now known as ‘The Holy Bodhi Tree’. He is believed to get enlightened though this prolonged phase of meditation.
The first phase of our Buddhist Pilgrimage Tour in Nepal starts with a detailed visit and sightseeing within the Buddhism related monasteries and Gumbas in Kathmandu. The major sites include the Swayambhunath Temple [The Monkey Temple], Maha Boudha and several other shrines in the city.
Secondly, we drive or fly from Kathmandu to Pokhara where other major sites such as the World Peace Pagoda and the Tibetan Refugee Centre will be considered. We make an extended exploration in these sites and then return back to a hotel in Pokhara to stay overnight. The very next day, early in the morning, we head towards Lumbini; the most significant and the largest Buddhism holy area in the country. Here we make a study on the famous Maya Devi temple, the holy pong Puskarini and the monastic zone where only monasteries and shrines and not any public buildings are supposed to be built.

“As an explorer and a photographer, I really had a great time in the country. Feels good, but unpleasant someway to leave with nothing but memories and photographs. It was fun where Himalayan Pilgrimage Journeytook me to.
