This holy land marks where Siddhartha Gautama was born in the 6th century B.C.

The surrounding Sacred Garden includes the holy Pushkarni pond, where Queen Maya Devi is believed to have bathed, and the historic Ashoka Pillar, erected in 245 B.C. Monasteries built by Buddhist communities worldwide enhance the site’s spiritual atmosphere.
