Is a package holiday to Gorakhpur worth it?

Gorakhpur is a historical city in the east of the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, near the Nepalese border. The city is primarily known as the gateway to Lumbini — the birthplace of Buddha, which is only 100 km away in Nepal and is a UNESCO World Heritage site.

The Gorakhnath Temple is the spiritual heart of the city and one of the most important Nath temples in India. The temple honors the medieval yogi Gorakhnath, the founder of the Nath tradition, and attracts millions of pilgrims each year. The monastery houses a library with rare Sanskrit manuscripts.

The Ramgarh Taal, a natural lake on the outskirts, is a popular recreational area with boating and a bird sanctuary. Gita Press, one of the largest publishers of religious texts in the world, is based in Gorakhpur and has been producing affordable editions of the Bhagavad Gita and other Hindu scriptures since 1923.

The Gorakhpur railway station once held the world record for the longest platform in the world (1,366 meters). The city is also a starting point for excursions to the Kushinagar district, where Buddha attained his Parinirvana (final liberation).

Gorakhpur particularly impresses with fascinating culture. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
