Description
Buddha Jayanti is the festival celebrating the birth, life, enlightenment, and the passing of the Buddha
The two most well-known features of Nepal are Mount Everest, the world's tallest peak, and Gautama Buddha, the man who attained enlightenment and became referred to as the Light of Asia. As a result, Buddha Jayanti is a significant holiday that is equally observed in Nepal by followers of various religions as well as Buddhists.
Lumbini, the birthplace of Buddha is, of course, the best place to visit during this festival. The place is crowded with devotees and tourists during this time. From Lumbini, you can also extend your tour to visit places such as Kapilvastu (the place where Buddha spent his first 29 years) and Bodhgaya (the place where Buddha attained enlightenment). If you are in Kathmandu, then you should go to Boudhanath stupa or Swayambhunath stupa to see Buddhist people engaging in various activities.
