Namo Buddha Temple

This is one of the most important pilgrimage sites in Nepal. Easily accessible by car via my route, access on foot is no less fabulous, as after a few hundred steps you will come face to face with the monument celebrating the encounter between an ape and a tiger.

Everything Leading up to the Temple is Amazing, If you're planning to go on a bike ride from kathmandu to namo buddha, Prepare for a heavy traffic till Bhaktapur and then prepare for an amazing ride after that! The roads Are LITERALLY perfect in my opinion, It's like you're riding on a countryside but with actually good roads... so yeah

Namo Buddha is a stunning and serene place that offers a perfect setting for meditation and spiritual practice. The place is immaculate and pollution-free, with fresh and cool air that rejuvenates the body and mind.

The views of the sunrise, sunset, and the Himalayas are breathtaking and inspiring. For Buddhists, Namo Buddha is a sacred and significant site, along with Boudha Stupa and Swayambhunath Stupa. I highly recommend visiting Namo Buddha for a memorable and meaningful experience.

Best place to have a peaceful time .. i suggest people to go early in the morning so they can explore nearby beautiful villages as well 🤗

About 2h drive from Kathmandu, one of the most sacred place for Buddhist pilgrims where the Buddha taught that, in a previous life, he gave his body to feed a tigress and her cubs dying of hunger 💕🌈🙏🏻🎁🌼🌍🪷✨

It's Nice Place. We where there by hiking with team. but you can use normal way to get there.

Road is not bad some areas are gravel but many areas peach. But but hiking rainy season is not good. today and this times season is very good.

Such a spiritual area to visit and experience. Highly recommend it when visiting Nepal.

སྟག་མོ་ལུས་སྦྱིན་ or Namo Buddha is a pilgrimage site associated with the Buddha's past life when he took rebirth of prince. It is said that there lived a king called Great Charioteer (ཤིང་རྟ་ཆེན་པོ་) who rulthe oldest was named Great Sound (Dra Chenpo), the middle Great Deity (Lha Chenpo), and the youngest Great Being (Semchen Chenpo). Of thee sons, youngest is known for his kindness and compassion.
One day, when three sons went out in the woods, they saw tigress tigress was tormented by hunger, she lay on the ground unable even to lift her head. Moved with compassion, he went back to the den and feed himself to tigress.

Merely coming here inspires one’s faith; renunciation and weariness with samsara naturally arise. As it is said: “In the supreme place of a solitary mountain retreat, any activity is virtuous.” In brief, Namo Buddha is a place of pilgrimage highly esteemed by people from all over the world, East and West.

After Great Being offered his body in generosity to the tigress, people found it difficult to travel through the region for fear of all wild animals, so they developed the practice of reciting “Namo Buddhaya” (“I take refuge in the Buddha”) to dispel their anxiety. To this day, the local inhabitants call the area Namo Buddha. As time passed, villages gradually appeared, and cultivated fields extended from the houses. The ancient stupa has become a special place to accumulate merit through activities such as circumambulation and making offerings. People come from all corners of the world to visit the site and make the traditional offerings of butter lamps, a fresh coat of white paint for the stupa, and a pleated cloth that encircles the base of its spire and ripples in the wind. In the past, when there were no roads for cars, only a modest footpath led to the site, and it was very difficult to reach. Nowadays, cars of any size can make the trip without a problem. In olden times, on most nights when the moon was full, a tiger would appear near the stupa; the caretaker and many local people would see it. It is said that later when cars, electricity, and other modern technology arrived, the tiger was no longer seen. Most of the local people in this area are Buddhist, and even to this day some can read Sanskrit.

About eight kilometers below the stupa in the town of Panauti are ruins said to be the palace of the king Great Charioteer. Even today, on the fifteenth day of the fourth Tibetan month, the people of the region have the custom of setting out a gilded bronze statue of the Buddha and gathering to perform ceremonies all day. At another interesting site about three kilometers below the stupa, a small temple is said to contain the remains of the Prince Great Being’s mother. Inside one can see an image of her carved into stone. Further, in the woods below the stupa, a little spring gives what is known as blessed water. About a fifteen-minute walk up from the stupa, one can visit the place where the prince offered his body in great generosity.

Today, two caves are venerated, one near the monastery and another on a hill nearby. Since so many centuries have passed, the exact place is difficult to locate. It is certain, however, that the cave is in this locale.

Serving u best since 1987

This is a vey popular Buddhist place in the Kavreplanchok district of Nepal.

The main big monastery is closed for COVID but you can light the candle if you go to the top of the monastery.

The scenery is breathtaking, due to weather I couldn't see the Everest but the view didn't disappoint me... If you're a peace-seeker, this is your place, the serenity and calmness of the place will take away all your worries. The monastery is aesthetically beautiful, the architecture is commendable, I couldn't enter the monastery because if covid rules but I heard it's laced with beautiful pictures.

The place is good for a short hike.

Only draw back is the road conditions leading to there is a bit poor. Overall worth the trip and strongly recommended.

Best place to visit with friends. Nice views. Make sure to visit stupa too. You can take bus from banepa buspark or you can go to mayur yatayat last station and take bus but i will be really packed.

Good and very peaceful but restaurant owner are not that friendly they even not let me use their restroom and there was no public bathroom nearby so need to go to top to take a piss!

Outside to many people nowadays. Inside the gumba ots quiet. 11:50 to 1:00 is lunch time, so plan accordingly.

Namobuddha is a famous Buddhist pilgrimage site situated near Panauti in Kavre district. Namobuddha is one of the most visit places near Kathmandu valley, perfect for the short escape for relaxation as it is far from the hustle and bustle of Kathmandu, with no pollution, and the air is so fresh and cool.

This is a Buddhist place where Buddha in his past life sacrificed his body to the tigress who was weak due to feeding of her cubs. It was a peaceful place with Buddhist monastery situated nearby. The place consist of the tigers den, a stupa constructed from the remains of Buddha’s body and a particular place where Buddha sacrificed Gambia body to the tiger.

Very beautiful place. Also called as Tamo Lujin which literally translates to giving one’s body to the tigress. This place is believed to be the place where Buddha gave his body to a hungry tigress who had given birth to cubs who was on the verge of dying.

*** Important*** if you are going to go to this place to see this and if you are going to use google maps, I would suggest you to type Namo Buddha Monastery instead of Namo Buddha temple.

Chill mind refreshing place ❤❤

Such a serene place. True experience of peace, within and externally. Just be there to feel what i said.
Bus leaves from dhulikhel bus park. Get a reserved seat before hand else you will be travelling as a sandwich between passengers inside bus. Haha, jokes apart.
It's better if you hire a bike to be there.

Overall the experience there is just amazing.

One of the best destination for those who don't want to go far away from Kathmandu. You can see mountain view from here when sky is clear. I went there with my family and we had a good time.

Namo Buddha is an ancient and famous Buddhist monastery in Nepal situation at 1750 meters. The monastery is surrounded by Tamang settlements. A special Buddhist legend of King Mahasattva offering his body to a hungry tigress at the very place also makes Namo Budhha a holy site for Buddhist people.
