NYT mentions the Thousand Buddha Temple as an example place to visit in Lumbini.

The 1000 Buddha Temple in Lumbini was joyfully inaugurated during the Festival of Buddha’s Descent from Heaven (Lhabab Düchen) on November 22, 2024, with over 8,000 participants, including revered Rinpoches, senior monks, dignitaries, and H.M. the Former King of Nepal. This milestone was followed by the 44th Annual Fall Seminar and Tara’s Triple Excellence Retreat, further deepening the Dharma activities at the monastery.
