Tourist Acctration in Around Kapilvastu
- Lumbini
Lumbini (86 kms.)
Lord Buddha was born here under a
blooming Sola tree. An Ashokan column -Rummindei pillar marks the visit of
emperor Ashoka in 249 B.C. to this sacred site and also commemorates Buddha's
nativity. Lumbini is located across the border in Nepal and buses ply only up
to the Nepal border. From here the stretch of 26 kms. has to be covered by
private vehicles.
