Tilaurakot
Excavated ramparts and gateways at ancient Kapilavastu broaden the Buddhist history circuit beyond Lumbini's garden. Plan a separate road journey west of Lumbini rather than a garden walk.
Earthworks and gateways give ancient Kapilavastu a visible outline in an open archaeological landscape. The site broadens a Lumbini visit from the birthplace garden to the wider story of the region's early settlements. Because it lies west of Lumbini, the comparison calls for a separate road journey and time to walk the remains.
