When Emperor Asoka, or Piyadasi, converted to Buddhism in 249 BC, he visited Lumbini. He also built four stupas as well as a stone pillar. Asoka's Pillar is inscribed with the following translation: "King Piyadasi (Asoka), beloved of devas, in the 20 years of the coronation, himself made a royal visit, Buddha Sakyamuni having been born here, a stone railing was built and a stone pillar erected to the Bhagavan [“blessed one”] having been born here. Lumbini village was taxed reduced and entitled to eight parts”.

Lumbini was once again rediscovered in 1895 by a German archaeologist. He did so by recognizing the Ashoka's Pillar. This highly revered location was also located through records kept by the Chinese pilgrim Fa Xian. In 1997, Lumbini received the designation of UNESCO World Heritage Site.
