Its ancient Brahmi inscriptions record Emperor Asoka\u2019s pilgrimage, while a later inscription recalls King Ripu Malla\u2019s visit in the 14th century. Together, these enduring traces make Niglihawa a remarkable testament to Buddhist lineage, royal devotion, and centuries of sacred pilgrimage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","class_list":["post-15782","stories","type-stories","status-publish","hentry","tags-buddhism","tags-heritage","tags-lumbini","district-rupandehi"],"acf":{"nepali_content":"","newari_content":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/saarang.com.np\/api\/wp\/v2\/stories\/15782","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/saarang.com.np\/api\/wp\/v2\/stories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/saarang.com.np\/api\/wp\/v2\/types\/stories"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saarang.com.np\/api\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15782"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/saarang.com.np\/api\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15782"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
