Buddha Purnima is celebrated to commemorate the birth, enlightenment, and death of Gautama Buddha. According to Hindu Calendar, it falls on the full moon day in the month of Vaishakha. The day is also called Vaisakh day or Vaisakh Purnima when the main three events occur in Buddha’s life – his birth, enlightenment, and death.

Mostly, the countries like Nepal, India, Thailand, Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, Korea, Laos, Vietnam, Mongolia, Cambodia, Singapore, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka celebrate Buddha Purnima.
