Rajgir is an ancient city Nalanda district of Bihar. Surrounded by hills, this beautiful valley was the capital of Magadh Empire and was called Rajgriha - the abode of royals. Both Lord Buddha & Lord Mahavira are said to have visited and stayed here during their lifetimes. The present day Ragjir is scattered with a number of such holy sites that resound with the past glory of the royals as well as the serenity of the presence of enlightened souls.
