Very good place I loved it
Pretty good place but they need to work out on their entrance i.e. main gate.
Nice place
Perfectly managed religious place in Nepla.
Very good place to visit in nepal and visit can be both spiritual as well as for fun. Children enjoy playing in the garden and adults see the historic place. But being old park it needs more maintenance to attract more people to the garden. And there are some cleaning issues also.
Highly recommended. Probably one of the best place to stay in Lumbini. Don't go with the pictures you see in Google. The rooms are far better than shown in their photos. Resort is located in a quite and peaceful place, nice cottages, plenty area, camping tents, friendly staff, great food. They don't sell cigarettes so if you smoke, take some by yourself.
Mind blowing place
Have enjoyed alot
