Buddhist Pilgrimage India Nepal is a tour planned to let you explore the major Buddhist sites of India and Nepal. This pilgrimage tour starts from the magnificent palaces and forts of Jaipur, the Taj Mahal—the seventh wonder of the world in Agra, the intricately carved erotic temples of Khajuraho, and the holy ghats of the River Ganges in Varanasi. Varanasi is the holiest of the seven sacred sites in Jainism and Hinduism and also has an important role in the development of Buddhism.
Another important place is Bodhgaya, where in the sixth century Prince Siddhartha Gautama attained supreme enlightenment at this holy place and Siddhartha became the Buddha. Khusinagar is another important place in Buddhism; it is the place where Lord Buddha passed away at the Hiranyavati River and was cremated at the Ramabhar Stupa. After exploring India, we will visit the birthplace of Lord Buddha, Lumbini. Lumbini is a very important Buddhist pilgrimage at a distance of 122 km from Gorakhpur (India).
