Buddhism Detinations in Nepal
Nepal, the neighboring state of India is the country where Gautam Buddha was born into a royal family around 563 BC at Lumbini. Though Lumbini was the birthplace of Gautam Buddha yet he left his royal palace in search of spiritual quest at an early age. Nepal has only 11% Buddhist population, the majority belongs to Hinduism. Buddhism was spread to south Asian countries far and wide and there are more Buddhist followers in other countries than Nepal.
Nepal as the birthplace of the founder of Buddhism, Lord Buddha draws thousands of tourists from across the globe. The ardent followers of Buddhism want to visit Lumbini and Kapilvastu once in a life. The main Buddhist pilgrimage sites of Nepal are Lumbini and Kapilvastu where Gautam Buddha spent his childhood days. Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal is a Buddhist destination as it houses Stupas and it serves as a gateway destination to Lumbini and Kapilvastu. Lumbini is one of the four sites of holy Buddhist pilgrimage.
