Buddhist culture tour in Nepal

The Buddhist CultureTour package highlights all the major Buddhist sites in Nepal. This complete Buddhist culture package  will include journeys to important destinations such as Kathmandu, Pokhara,  Lumbini and Chumig Gyatsa (Muktinath).

We will tour Swyambhunath, Boudhanath,  Kopan Gumpa, Seto Gumpa, Shanti Stupa, Pharping monastery, Namo Buddha and a few others. The tour will not just be a sightseeing experience but much more than that: It would be a learning experience  about Buddha and Buddhist religion .

If you’re interested in doing meditation in this tour, we will arrange for you to spend some time with monks in monasteries and learn mediation. You would also be able to attend the praying ceremonies and rituals carried by great Lamas.

Lumbini the birthplace of Lord Buddha is the world’s most important Buddhist pilgrimage center. Lumbini lies about 250 km from Kathmandu, in the southern plains of Nepal.
Recent archaeological surveys have led to the discovery of Mayadevi Pond (where Mayadevi bathed before giving birth to Buddha), Nativity Stone (the exact spot where Buddha was born), Ashoka Pillar (erected by the Ashoka emperor as a tribute to Budhha’s birthplace) and numerous palatial remains of what was once a vibrant kingdom of the Shakyas. Lumbini is being preserved amidst a setting of rich natural biodiversity and pristine wildlife. Cranes and spotted deer are some of the unique flagship species of Lumbini.

Because of historical, cultural, natural and archaeological significance, Lumbini has been inducted into World Heritage Site list by UNESCO.

Today Lumbini has become an international spiritual center for both Buddhist pilgrims and tourists of varied faiths. Lumbini Master Plan, which is currently being implemented, envisages the construction of the entire Lumbini area into an international center of peace, meditation, research and natural sanctuary center. International monasteries have been built by various countries including India, China, Thailand, Burma, Germany etc.
