International Monastic Zone

The International Monastic Zone is located betwee the New Lumbini Village and the Sacred Garden Zone. The Monastic Zone is divided by Central Canal. There are east and west monastic enclaves having 42 (29 Mahayana & 13 Theravada) plots of land allotted for the construction of new monasteries-Mahayana and Theravada sects of Buddhism. Within these areas, land
will be available for the construction of facilities by religious traditions. Buildings of various styles will co-exist inside this zone, owing to that fact that they will be built by groups from various countries and will reflect the traditional style of their nation or religious tradition. On order to unify further the various styles; landscaping will be coordinated according to the Master Plan. A space known as a Monastic Plaza, made up circular or semi-circular steps, will be located in the center of each monastic zone. Each plaza will be serve as a central gathering point and will have a symbolic sculpture placed in its center.

Lumbini Development Trust has distributed 21 plots of land out of 29 plots in the western monastic zone and 9 plots of land out of 13 plots to the eastern monastic zone for the construction of monastery to different governmental and non-governmental institutions.
