Overview of your Bodhgaya tour

Magadha, ancient kingdom of India, situated in what is now west-central Bihar state, in northeastern India. It was the nucleus of several larger kingdoms or empires between the 6th century BCE and the 8th century CE. Lively accounts of Pataliputra and Magadha are available in the Indica of the Greek historian Megasthenes (c. 300 BCE) and in travel diaries of the Chinese Buddhist pilgrims Faxian and Xuanzang (4th-5th and 7th centuries CE). Many sites in Magadha were sacred to Buddhism and Jainism. Toward the close of the 12th century, Magadha was conquered by the Muslims. In this tour you will discover Ancient Magadh or today's Bihar and you will know how that rich history came to be known in the modern world. The name Bihar comes from Sanskrit word Vihara means monastery. Now Bihar is the land of ancient heritage.
