Overview

India Nepal Buddhist Circuit Tour takes you through the important Buddhist pilgrimage sites both in India and Nepal as suggested by Buddha himself at the time of parinirvana (Death).

“Who will guide us once you get parinirvana?” as asked by his disciples in great sorrow. Buddha ask them to go firstly to Lumbini, where I was born as prince Siddhartha. From there you will know how I lived in the palace as a prince.

Secondly go to Bodhgaya, where I got enlightened with all the answers I was searching.

Thirdly go to Sarnath where I gave my first Sermon and made the first disciples (Sangha).

Finally you visit Kushinagar (where we are staying now) to remember that everybody needs to leave this world one day. Nothing is permanent and this is the law of nature.

As this tour includes the important places where Buddha spent his entire life we call it a Buddhist Circuit Tour of India and Nepal. In addition Bouddh Stupa, Swoyambhu Stupa and Patan Durbar Square in Kathmandu are other highlights which gives you glimpses of Nepalese and Tibetan Buddhism which are also the important World Heritage sites in Nepal.
