Sunrise view from Sarangkot and Fly to Lumbini
Lumbini Activities In the early morning, as the sun begins to rise, the mountains are bathed in soft golden light, creating a mesmerizing sight. The reflection of the yellow sunlight on the snow-capped peaks of the Annapurna and Dhulagiri ranges is truly a sight to behold. The contrast between the dark silhouettes of the mountains and the warm hues of the rising sun creates a captivating and picturesque landscape. To witness this incredible sunrise view, we will take a bus to Sarangkot early in the morning, well before sunrise. As the sun rises, you'll have the opportunity to see the mountains gradually come to life with vibrant colors and stunning natural beauty. After breakfast, we will go for boating around Fewa Lake and visit Tal Barahi Temple islanded in the middle of the lake. By afternoon we will board a flight to Lumbini. Upon arrival at Lumbini we will visit around Mayadevi temple, which is the place where Lord Buddha was born. The great Ashoka Pillar, by the side of the temple, epitomizes the historical existence of the Lord Buddha. Around the premises of the temple, there are several chronicles (some in English) that explain the historical importance of the site. Apart from these, we will go to see the great Baby Buddha Statue, ahead of which burns the eternal flame (also known as Shanti Dip or flame of peace). Also, there are over 10 brilliant monasteries, built by several nations including China, in the periphery of the temple where we can gape on the inner décor of the temple.

Jungle Safari activities in Chitwan National Park, Fly to Kathmandu
Chitwan has been one of the global attraction sites for the last couple of decades. Today, we will catch a short canoe ride in the Rapti River, which, indeed, is an amazing opportunity to see Gharials and Muggers basking in the sun. After that, we will go on a safari- either via Jeep or Elephant- to encounter the wild creatures by surprise. To see one-horned rhinoceros, it is not a big deal; however, the royal Bengal tiger is a rarely sighted creature in the forest of Chitwan. With over 650 species of birds (including the migratory ones), Chitwan has claimed its title of being one of the best spots for Bird-watching. If you are a passionate photographer than you should stay in this place for a bit of a long time. After lunch we will board a flight to Kathmandu.
