Bihar is an adaptation of the term 'vihara' that literally means a Buddhist monastery. With a rich historical and religious heritage, Bihar was the nerve center of Buddhist learning in the ancient times. Famous for the Nalanda University, Bihar was known as Pataliputra or Magadh in the olden times.

Spread on fertile Indo-Gangetic plains, Bihar has bustled for ages on the banks of the sacred river Ganges. A trove of scenic waterfalls, hot springs and tranquil lakes, Bihar is simply spectacular - and a tourist circuit that unfortunately hasn't been explored much.
