What is Patna best known for?

One of the world's oldest cities, Patna, the capital of Bihar, is located on the banks of the Ganges River, proudly incorporating into its heart the city's heritage, patriotism and culture. A bustling city with an ancient site, Patna's heritage falls within two thousand years. A place of religious diversity, the city was a centre of many kings, so it boasts of rich culture and cultural heritage. Patna retains its historical beauty, and ancient gossip in every corner is emphasised by a powerful combination of many cultures - Buddhists, Sufis, Jains, Sikhs, and Hindus.

Patna is an ancient and prominent city located on the banks of the Ganga River in Bihar. The ancient city of Pataliputra was just a village - Pataligram - in the time of the Buddha in the sixth-century b.c. However, Ajatasatru saw a large part of Magadha's growing empire, facing the rival Republic of Licchavis in Vaishali on the northern (opposite) side of the Ganga, forming an army there. The natural benefits of this site have made it commercially viable and have helped with its growth. The Magadan king Udai transferred his capital from Rajgriha to Pataliputra. It remained the capital of the empire under the Nandas, the Mauryas, and the Guptas. It was a prosperous and populous city when Megasthenes, a Greek ambassador to Chandragupta Maurya, visited her twice.
