Here's the Gate to Lumbini Garden.
The Maya Devi Temple which enshrined the exact spot of the birth . Too bad that no photography is allowed inside. The marker stone placed by King Ashoka is now protected by a layer of bullet proved glass shield.
The Ashoka Pillar which landmarked the place .
The inscription on the Pillar can still be read , vaguely.
The pond that Queen Maya dipped in before the birth of the Prince.
The Bodhi tree which was said to have grown at the same time .
Lumbini Garden is now under the care of world heritage .
