Lumbini 倫比尼


A World Peace Pagoda,

There is an eternal flame burning to the north of the Sacred Garden. This is a symbolic remembrance to Buddha, the ‘Light of Asia’.

Pancha Sila


The Ashokan Pillar, the oldest monument in Nepal, records Ashoka’s visit to Nepal in 249 BC.


和平佛塔,

象徵世界和平的「永恆之火」,

刻著受持五戒的石碑,

阿育王石柱,此阿育王石柱最珍貴的部分在於上面刻著波羅米文字的阿育王敕文。大意為阿育王在登基的二十周年前來佛陀誕生地朝拜。
