Hi there! Do you know what a pilgrimage is? It's like a special trip that people take to visit really important and special places to pray or meditate.
In Nepal, there are many special places that Buddhist people like to visit. These places are important to them because they have to do with their religion and beliefs.
One very important Buddhist pilgrimage site in Nepal is called Lumbini. Lumbini is a small town in Nepal that is said to be the birthplace of the Buddha, who was a very important spiritual teacher. Many Buddhist people visit Lumbini to pay their respects to the Buddha and to meditate.
Another important pilgrimage site in Nepal is called Swayambhunath, but it's also known as the Monkey Temple! Swayambhunath is a big temple that sits on top of a hill, and it's covered in monkeys! This temple is special because it has been around for a very long time and is said to embody a lot of spiritual energy.
Another pilgrimage site is Boudhanath. Boudhanath is a big white dome that has many colorful prayer flags and prayer wheels. People come here to walk clockwise around the dome while spinning the prayer wheels and chanting prayers.
These are just a few examples of the many different pilgrimage sites in Nepal that Buddhist people visit. Each site has its own special meaning and significance to the people who visit.
