One of the most significant travel places in Nepal is Lumbini, which is known in the world as the birthplace of Lord Buddha.  

It is a peaceful town that appeals to the spiritual travelers, history lovers, and culture seekers who come to find the peaceful atmosphere and profound historical significance of this town.  

Lumbini has wide open areas, walking paths, and sacred areas in contrast to busy cities, which stimulate reflection and low-speed traveling.  

The Lumbini Master Plan has been very careful in conserving the site, and the site is a well-planned complex of monasteries and temples and gardens that have been constructed by the Buddhist communities of the world.  

Every part of Lumbini narrates the story that is related to the life, teaching, and message of peace of Buddha.  

Having a good and comfortable location to stay in facilitates the journey since there are many significant sites around the area.  

Staying at Tiger Palace by Soaltee, Bhairahawa, a few miles' drive out of Lumbini, enables a traveler to visit the religious places during the day and come back to luxury, quality food, and a peaceful environment, ready to make the spiritual experience well balanced and enjoyable.
