India is the cradle of Buddhism and is also the birthplace of four important religions in the world: Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism. Nepal is a country heavily influenced by Indian religion. The majority of Nepalese people follow Hinduism and is the homeland of the god Shiva - the protector of the people here.
The WTA Tourism Alliance will help visitors learn about the religions of these two countries through the “India - Nepal Pilgrimage” program. With a suitable 10-day program, visitors will learn about the main points related to the religions of the two Buddhist countries - India and Nepal. Among them are the following highlights:
Lumbini: The place where Prince Siddhartha was born, the stone pillar erected by King Ashoka to mark the place where Buddha was born, the sacred pond where the Queen bathed before giving birth to the Prince and where the Prince bathed after his birth, the Asanga Flower Tree.
Bodh Gaya: Where Buddha Shakyamuni attained enlightenment. For Buddhism, Bodh Gaya is an important place in the life of Buddha Shakyamuni, because this is where Buddha attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree.
Sarnath: Here visitors will be able to admire the sacred relics of Sarnath, the beautiful sacred Deer Park, where Buddha first turned the wheel of Dharma. Next to it is the sacred and mysterious Ganges River.
Kushinagar: Where Buddha entered nirvana.
In addition, the program also has many attractions related to Buddhism that guests will learn about. Register early to have a meaningful pilgrimage and attractive gifts from WTA.
