City in Lumbini Province, Nepal
Lumbinī (Lumbini, pronounced[ˈlumbini]ⓘ, "the lovely") is a Buddhist pilgrimage site in the Rupandehi District of Lumbini Province in Nepal.
According to the sacred texts of the Buddhist Commentaries, Maya Devi gave birth to Siddhartha Gautama in Lumbini in c.624 BCE.[a][2][3] Siddhartha Gautama achieved Enlightenment, and became Shakyamuni Buddha who founded Buddhism.[4][5][6] He later passed into parinirvana at the age of 80 years, in c.544 BCE.[7][8] Lumbini is one of four most sacred pilgrimage sites pivotal in the life of the Buddha.[9]
Lumbini has a number of old temples, including the Mayadevi Temple, and several new temples, funded by Buddhist organisations from various countries.
