Jal Mandir

Reviewed By travrymple - Mumbai, India

Beautiful temple standing in the middle of a tank. This shrine must be visited for it's spiritual significance. This is the place where Lord Mahavira attained nirvana in 527 BCE. The place where the Lord was cremated was so sacred to his devotees that thousands of them took away the soil from the site, eventually creating a tank where the temple was constructed.

Nalanda University Ruins

Reviewed By Krishhere - Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), India

The ruins which were restored by the Archiological society of India in the 1950's depicts our glorious past dating back to the 5th century AD. The artifacts excavated are stored in the Nalanda museum which is opposite the ruins. The university is said to have had 10,000 students and 2,000 teachers. Only a part of the ruins have been escalated. Felt great to be at a place which is so much a part of the history and culture of India.
