Where is Namobuddha Monastery?
Namobuddha Monastery is near Kathmandu Valley, Nepal, with Kathmandu Valley used as the route reference point on WanderBees.
Namobuddha Monastery (Thrangu Tashi Yangtse) is one of Nepal's most sacred Buddhist sites, crowning a quiet hilltop at 1,750 metres in Kavre district. The ancient stupa marks the spot where Prince Mahasattva gave his body to a starving tigress and her cubs — a supreme act of compassion revered across the Buddhist world. The hilltop is home to an active monastery of 250 monks, the Baghini Gufa (Tigress Cave) with ancient carvings, and sweeping views of Langtang, Gaurishankar, and on clear days Everest. The classic approach is a 3–5 hour hike from Dhulikhel through pine forest and traditional villages.
