Overview And Highlights

Nepal is home to the most important places of pilgrimage in Buddhism (Buddhist tour). One of these places is Lumbini where Gautam Buddha was born. Other pilgrimage sites of religious significance to the Buddhists are the Boudhanath Stupa, Swayambhunath Stupa, Kapan Monastery, and Namo Buddha.

Visit Lumbini – Birthplace of Lord Buddha

Lumbini is the holy site where Buddha was born. In the ruins of ancient Lumbini, we find a sacred tree, the Ashoka pillar, a bathing pond, and the Mayadevi temple, where the exact spot of Buddha’s birth is located. As of 1997, Lumbini is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Boudhanath Stupa Visit – Largest Buddhist Stupa in the World

The Boudhanath stupa is one of the holiest and largest Stupas in the world. In 1979 it was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Over 50 Gompas surround this Stupa located in the Eastern part of Kathmandu.

Visit Swayambhunath – Monkey Temple

Swayambhunath is probably the most sacred site for pilgrimage in Buddhism. It is also known as the Monkey Temple because a number of holy monkeys live in and around the temple premises. The Stupa sits atop a small hill in Kathmandu and is surrounded by small shrines and temples.

Namo Buddha – The Holiest Buddhist Monastery

Namo Buddha is believed to be the place where Lord Buddha had once offered his life to a starving Tigress and her cubs. Namo Buddha which is located 40 kilometers from Kathmandu is also one of the most famous Buddhist pilgrimages in Kathmandu.

Couldn't recommend Peace Nepal Treks enough - very, very professional outfit. In March 2014, my wife and I traveled to Nepal with Elgin Rotary Club and other Rotarians from District 1010. This was our third visit to see our then-current Water, Sanitation, and Health Project in that desperately needy country. On the third evening while in Pokhara and due to travel out the next day to remote villages I got a phone call to inform me that my Dad was very seriously ill in hospital. I notified Peace ... + See more Nepal Treks of our wish to travel home to Scotland asap. Their response was simply magnificent. They arranged a flight on the first flight to Kathmandu the next morning and that same lunchtime we got the last two seats on Thai Airways from Kathmandu to Heathrow via KL. Nir himself drove us to Pokhara Airport, and his team met us at Kathmandu Domestic Airport and gave us our Thai Airways tickets, and assisted us to the International Terminal. A first-class service and one that could not have been bettered. We cannot praise Peace Nepal Treks highly enough. Many, many thanks Nir and your splendid team. George Duthie ... - See less
