Tucked away in a hidden gateway to remote and rural Bihar, the temple site is ideal to experience positive energy by people for all faith. Archaeological Survey of India has taken immense interest in the sculptors in temple. There is unique Peepal tree with its branches bending toward the temple. The temple houses Shahastralinga with around 1,008 miniature Shivlingas

Steep Ascent in a single air scary Ropeway was quite an experience. Initially, we were scared but soon started enjoying it. Reaching the Buddha stupa and the surrounding view was really great. The dome has glistening golden statues on all the four sides and there is a beautiful monastery cum museum adjacent to it. Worth the visit and the enthralling experience.

I went to Tomb of Sher Shah Suri. The Tomb of Sher Shah Suri lies in the middle of the excavated Lake. The structure is surrounded by all sides with large stone stairways leading to water of the excavated Lake. It is great place to go.

When we look at the historic significance of this place, it is so awe-inspiring! The place where Buddha delivered his last sermon. The pillar was erected by Emperor Ashoka to mark this place with the seated lion facing the direction, in which the Buddha set off on his final journey from Vaishali. There is a nominal fee to visit this place. The ground around the site where the stupa and the pillar stand, is well maintained with lovely greenery and benches to sit. Overall lovely experience. Must see place in Bihar.
