Lumbini Crane Sanctuary
The ancient Lumbini Garden that spreads over the 6 km2 area has been developed into a sanctuary for cranes in Nepal.[1]
The ruins of the palace of Tilaurakot (ancient capital of the Sakya kingdom of Kapilavastu), where Siddhartha lived his first 29 years, are located 27 km west of Lumbini.
