Lumbini Getting there & around

Getting there & away

Local buses run regularly between Lumbini and the local bus stand in Bhairawa (Rs 25, 1½ hours). The road to Lumbini is lined with traditional farms and tall mango trees - a perfect setting for a bit of roof riding.

To reach Taulihawa from Lumbini, take a local bus to the junction with the Bhairawa road (Rs 5) and change to a bus bound for Taulihawa (Rs 25, 1½ hours).

If you need to be in Bhairawa in a hurry, taxis in Lumbini Bazaar charge Rs 500 to the main Bhairawa bus stand and Rs 600 to the border at Belahiya.
