Stargazing in Lumbini

Lumbini sits on the Terai plains at about 105 m. The flat horizon is ideal for catching the Moon and planets as they rise and set, though haze low on the horizon dims faint stars — look higher up for the best view.

This time of year

Right now is post-monsoon season, usually the clearest time of year for stargazing in Nepal.
