🪷 Lumbini: The Sacred Birthplace of Lord Buddha

Nestled in the Terai plains of southern Nepal, Lumbini is one of the most serene and sacred spiritual sites in the world. Revered as the birthplace of Siddhartha Gautama — the Buddha, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is a place of peace, silence, and deep reflection. At Eternal Trips, we take you on a meditative journey to Lumbini where every step echoes wisdom, compassion, and spiritual awakening

💖 Why Lumbini is a Sacred Pilgrimage Destination

Lumbini is not just a historical site — it’s a living symbol of enlightenment. Here, Queen Maya Devi gave birth to Siddhartha around 563 BCE, who later became the Buddha. Pilgrims from across the world come to walk in the Buddha's early footsteps, visit monasteries built by Buddhist nations, and meditate in gardens that mirror tranquility.

It’s a place where spiritual seekers experience peace beyond words and a connection beyond time.
