Birth Place of Buddha :Nepal

Birth Place of Buddha:Gautam Buddha was born in Lumbini, Nepal. Some people think Buddha was born in India , it is not true.There are different fact of Buddha's life. Which was written many years after his death by idealizing followers . However, it is difficult to separate facts from the great mass of myth and legend in which they are embedded. From the available evidence, Buddha apparently showed an early inclination to meditation and reflection, displeasing his father, who wanted him to be a warrior and ruler rather than a religious philosopher. He married at an early age and participated in the worldly life of the court.
He visit northern India as a mendicant , Buddha first investigated Hinduism. When he took instruction from some famous Brahman teachers, he found the Hindu caste system repellent and Hindu asceticism futile. Gautam continued his search, attracting but later losing five followers. About 528, while sitting under a bo tree near Gaya, in what is now Buddh Gaya in the state of Bihār, he experienced the Great Enlightenment, which revealed the way of salvation from suffering. Shortly afterward he preached his first sermon in the Deer Park near Benares (now Vārānasi). This sermon, the text of which is preserved, contains the gist of Buddhism.
 Buddha traveled through the valley of the Ganges River,spreading his words to followers, and establishing monastic communities that admitted anyone regardless of caste. He returned home and converted his father, his wife, and other members of his family to his beliefs.Buddha was one of the greatest human beings. Buddha died in Kusinagara, Nepal, as a result of eating contaminated food. He was about 80 years old.
So Nepal is the land of peace.
