Namo Buddha is one of the most sacred Buddhist pilgrimage sites in Nepal, located just 40 km southeast of Kathmandu. Surrounded by serene hills and lush terraced fields, this site holds a legendary tale of compassion, where a young prince (Buddha in a previous life) offered his body to a starving tigress and her cubs.
