[Great Drigung Lotus Stupa, Lumbini, Nepal] A vibrant temple that embodies the essence of Tibetan Buddhism
This stupa is visited by Buddhists from various countries, including Tibetans, and spiritual pilgrims.
Occasionally, monks chant sutras and hold meditation sessions, creating a sacred atmosphere where you can feel the energy just by being there.
Lumbini is a rare place where you can experience the moment when the world's faiths overlap, the "origin of Buddha."
👀Highlights✨
An elegant stupa named after the lotus🌸
The Great Drigung Kagyu Lotus Stupa is a stupa with a particularly sophisticated presence among the Tibetan Buddhist temples built in Lumbini, the birthplace of Buddha.
As its name suggests, the graceful beauty of its lotus motif draws your attention at a glance, even from afar. The contrast of white and gold stands out against the blue sky, making it seem like the entrance to paradise✨
The impressive mandala and murals inside 🎨
When you enter the hall, you will see vivid Tibetan Buddhist mandalas and colorful murals.
The figures of the Buddha and the guardians of the dharma depict a cosmic worldview that transcends time and space, inviting visitors on a spiritual journey. If you sit quietly and meditate, you will feel a sense of calm deep in your heart🧘♀️🌈
A quiet and meditative space where time seems to have stopped🧘
Even in Lumbini, this is a spot where you can feel a particularly deep silence.
There are relatively few tourists, making it the perfect environment for those who want to spend some serious meditation or spiritual time.
You can sit on a bench and listen to the sound of the wind, or face yourself with the chirping of the birds...that's the kind of time you can find here.

Lumbini Local Eatery & More at Alina
#Nepal #Lumbini #restaurant #local #Hookah
Before and after your exploration through all of the temples in Lumbini, Make sure to stop at Alina Restaurant. Dhiren served some great local MoMo and soup. Bar and Tea prices are reasonable. The rickshaw drivers are nearby the street bazaar. Amidst the sacred cows walking the street, you can enjoy a Japanese-style room for tea or conversation too! Great vibe, Great service, Great prices!
