Lumbini, located about 250 kilometers west of the capital city Kathmandu, is the birthplace of Buddha. The Sacred Gardens of Lumbini, which are comprised of several spots related to the birth of the Buddha in 623 BC, is one of the world's four Buddhist pilgrimage sites and attracts many Buddhists every year. Spending a day meditating under a sacred, prayer flag-decorated Bodhi tree in the garden can give you a respite from the steamy weather in Lumbini and the hurly-burly of city life.
