Vikramshila ruins are the remains of a Buddhist university and monastic complex located in present-day Bhagalpur district of Bihar, India. The university is believed to have been established by king Dharmapala in the 8th century AD and was one of the two most important centers of Buddhism in the Indian subcontinent during the Pala dynasty. The ruins include the main temple, residential quarters for students and teachers, and other structures. The site was rediscovered in the early 20th century and has been the subject of ongoing archaeological excavations and preservation efforts.

The place is simply fantastic , full of peace and emotions.Paradised with tranquility You will experience utmost satisfaction cherishing the remains of the bodhstupa and the engraved encarnations.A must visit place.

I love this place .. so beautiful museum..lot of ancient thing kept in museum with good explanation

Please keep our heritage clean, a humble request to all who pay visits. If you're going to the Vikramshila, go to the university 1st and then go to the museum. While visiting the university, try exploring the unexplored part, although it is open for all visitors but normally visitors don't pay visit to places like, library, meditation caves, water supply system. Road to it and the places are similarly quite amazing and much more interesting. Try going down into the meditation cave just to feel the adrenaline rush :) Keep exploring

A historically very intresting place to visit.Amazing part is knowing how people used to study in ancient India. it also has a museum containing some of the important artifacts unearthed during excavations . The approach road from the highway is not good and also too narrow . Cheap ticket is also an add-on.

me and my friend in Vikramshila

It's a place where you can get a lot of knowledge about our past

very ancient and informative place to visit at least......

Quaint museum with key pieces inside

This is just like of Nalanda University but there is somewhat many type of difference from the Nanda University but it is so good from the Nalanda University and it is the best history to see her and all person who comes to BHAGALPUR. Vikramshila is the world's first University .Here you can see the ruins of rooms,sitting arrangements of students ,halls etc I visit here with my school mate to a historic trip. I click some amazing historic picture here, that are below.

One of oldest

Its amazing guys.

Wel maintained place.

Amazing collection from the site of Vikramshila Must visit place in Bihar

This fort is famous for my area, and it is very beautiful

The valuable remains of vikramshila has already been taken away and placed in big museum, but still the place is awesome. Must visit place, come and see what the mughals did to us, and think what the place would have been at that time at its peak.

It is a nice place. Since it is a Archaeological site so, it is always a nice chance to know about the history of the place. A canteen might be started inside so, that people can buy some food. Although 2-3 small shops are present just before the entrance gate.

No doubt, this is an amazing place where you can release tension. The ruins of BIKRAMSHILA is situated around 40 kms away from bhagalpur main town. Bateshwar sthan is the nearby place to visit along with BIKRAMSHILA. Nature have given all required stuffes to make silence and peace to these both places.

This is ancient and historic place. We have visited from long time previously this was not taken care by government but now situation is good. Overall place is well maintained and wole palce is covered with boundry wall . Full ancient look and dense forest in this place. So you can visit with family any time. Friday museam is closed so paln accordingly.

a historic place that i visit previous days. it gave millions of talented minds but our government not caring well of that place. place need so much attention and way from vikramshila station to university is very bad condition. so please go with own vehicles

Vikrashila is one of site manage by Government. This has its own historical value like Nalanda university. Well managed site but approach road is not in great shape. it's Smart Ashoka days but histories are missing unlike Nalanda site. Not sure but it is named as Khudai Sthal. Nearest rail station is Kahalgoan but there another rail station Bikramshila but less accessible place. Looking at road shape, avoid taking road journey if coming from Bhagalpur.

Nice

It's amazing place for archeological students

This mill is very convenient

For all the people who are interested in History of vedic Buddha period... It will be an knowledgeable visit for you all👍

Museum remains closed on Friday..And if you are a history lover ,there is something for you..For Indian visitors entry charges were rs 25 each . For NRI Around rs 300 each.

A great historical place.... Loved it...

Nice place for historic knowledge.school kids and children must visit this place for historical knowledge and for our historic availability.

Vikramshila's architecture is really incredible.The artistic genius was quite amazing and was much ahead of time.Its really an instrumental site to visit and enjoy the cultural heritage.

Vikramshila University is presently located near the river Ganges in Village Antichak kahalgaon, Bhagalpur district of Bihar, India. The university was founded by King Dharmapala of the Pala dynasty between 770 ADE to 810 ADE. This Mahavihara later developed into one of the most prominent universities in India. Famous Buddhist monks were called from here in the 9th century by the King of Tibet to preach their religion. The university had about 160 viharas with more than 3000 indigenous and foreign students studying Buddhist education. The fame of this university was at its peak in the mid-11th century. The name of Dipankar Shri Gyan and Abhyankar, Mitra, gyanshri, vairochan, racshit, jetari, ratnakar was prominent in the famous masters of this university. The entire remains found in excavation work done by Indian Archeology between 1972 and 1982 are preserved in a museum near the Buddhist site. This museum was established in 2004.
