Rajgir hills

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rajgir hills, lying in central regions of the Indian state of Bihar, are two parallel ridges extending around 65 km. The highest point in the hills rise to an altitude of 388 meters, but mostly the hills are around 300 meters high. Between these two ridges lie a number of places of historical importance, dating from the period of the Mahabharata, Gautam Buddha, Mahavira, Mauryas and the Guptas.

Currently, Rajgir is the most famous place of the area.
