Ministry of Tourism, Government of India Celebrates Visit India Year 1999-2000 : The buddhist Circuit (Sarnath-Kushinagar-Bodhgaya-Nalanda-Rajgir-Vaishali-Sanchi-Amravati-Nagarjunakonda)

Two thousand five hundred years ago, a gentle sage taught the world the path to enlightenment.

Sakyamuni, Gautama Buddha, travelled this land preaching his message of compassion, simplicity and renunciation.

This circuit is a pilgrim's passage through the palaces immortalised by the enlightened one.

The highlight of your journey will be the Holy Bodhi tree at Bodhgaya under which he gained enlightenment.
