Birth place of Buddha is amazing. Great sculptures. When you go you inside temples and see how grand they are you will feel inner peace. Photography isn't allowed in some of the places.

It's a very beautiful & cool place which is located in Nepal (The birthplace of Siddharth Gautama). Later became known as the BUDDHA. I visited it last time to explore Maya Devi Temple at evening time. It looks so beautiful in the evening by lighting. Apart from the Maya Devi Temple, there are several other monasteries and meditation centres in Lumbini that offer visitors a chance to learn more about Buddhism and practice meditation. I recommend to all people to visit Lumbini.

Every time I visit Lumbini, I feel peace and serene. The last time I visited, I rented a bicycle with my friends which cost around Rs. 250-300 for 4-5 hrs. You'll finish each temple and also have time to chill which you'll miss on auto. So highly recommend renting bicycle.

Recently Chitrakoot Shrinath disciple visited Lumbini (Nepal) which is the birth place of Gautam Buddha. The old birth place structure of Gautam Buddha is well preserved here. After observing it we can imagine the old style of house construction. Buddhism was founded by Gautama Buddha. Buddha was born as Prince Siddhartha at Lumbini near Kapilavastu (in present Nepal) in 566 BC. He was the son of Suddhodhana and Mahamaya. Suddhodhana was the chief of the Sakya clan. Due to this, Buddha was also known as ‘Sakyamuni’. His mother died either giving birth to him or after seven days. Siddhartha was brought up by his maternal aunt, Prajapati Gautami. This gave him the name ‘Gautama’. He was married to Yashodhara and had a son, Rahula. He left his home at the age of 29 to become an ascetic. This event is called Mahabhishkramana. The idea of renunciation occurred to the Buddha after he saw four different states of man – sick man, old man, corpse and ascetic. Buddha wandered for seven years and at the age of 35 attained enlightenment at Uruvela while meditating under a Peepal tree (Fig Tree/ Ficus Religiosa) on the banks of the river Niranjana. This tree came to be known as ‘Bodhi tree’ and the place became Bodh Gaya (in Bihar). He gave his first sermon at Sarnath near Varanasi. This event is called Dharmachakra Pravartana/ Dhammachakkappavattana. He died in 483 BC under a Sal tree in Kushinagar (in UP). This event is called the Mahaparinirvana. The term ‘Buddha’ means ‘enlightened one’. The four noble truths (Arya Satya) in Buddhism are: 1. The world is full of sorrow 2. Desire is the root cause of all sorrow 3. Sorrow can be conquered by conquering desire 4. Desire can be conquered by following the eight-fold paths (Ashtangirka Marga) The eight-fold path in Buddhism is: Right understanding Right resolve Right speech Right action Right living Right efforts Right thought Right self-concentration.

Birth Place of Lord Buddha. Messenger of Peace. The problem is, it is surrounded by Muslim populated area. And i suspect in the near future problems may arise. Ancient structures dating 2000 yrs back are scattered all over the place.

The Birthplace of Gautam Buddha Lies close to the India border. Since it's a place visited by many Buddhist followers & tourists, a lot of Eastern countries have built their beautiful Dharamshalas & meditation centres like India, Singapore, Korea, Thailand, Japan, China, etc. There are 2 main sites to visit in the Complex, one is the Mayadevi Temple Site and other is the World Peace Pagoda. It can easily take you an entire day to explore all the areas. The Mayadevi temple site is a white building structure with a marker stone which was placed by Indian Emperor Ashoka 400 years after Buddha's birth. He found the location of where Gautam Siddharth was delivered on a full moon night in April when his mother Mahadevi was on her way to her Hometown. The edifice on the spot mentions that Samrat Ashoka visited the location himself, placed the marker stone & waived taxes for the residents as a mark of respect for the enlighted being. There is also a Bodhi tree, some ancient stupas and brick channels of the ancient times. There is boating activities, a cafe and restroom facility a good walk away from the temple site. Photography is not allowed inside the building and it is a holy site venerated by the Buddhists. There is a nominal entry fee to the Mayadevi temple and there is a security check at the entrance. You are required to remove your footwear and wash ur feet before entering the holy premises. There are a few steps to climb & a wooden ramp to walk on, so not recommended for people on wheelchair & aged seniors. Many leave back cash & gold foils on the rock near the stone as a mark of respect. The World Peace Pagoda is a huge White dome funded by the Japanese. A serene peaceful place. Reaching Lumbini by road is easy. There are many hotels in the area, but I would recommend the ones near the circle in between the Pagoda and the temple. It's easier to park your vehicle & hire a local rickshaw or van to visit all the spots as they know the shortcuts. When I visited, I saw an airport being built as well as provision for Electronic buses.
