    Very peaceful cleaned and calm place but the main thing missing is that there should be a hygienic food provider or a restaurant is needed and my experience was good and i will recommend to visit this place to calm your mind.

    This place is meant for silence and meditation. However, due to some renovation work we may hear a little noise inside the meditation hall. Timings: From 9 AM to 6 PM(all days) and it’s a free entry for everyone(no need to worry about the ticket/token purchase/parking fee).

    Very peaceful place. Gives a sense of calm on visiting. Has a meditation hall too. It's better to sit there in silence for 10 minutes and experience the calmness. Photography is not allowed inside.

    It's been very silent and lot of peace. The hall is wide and vast, very good for meditation. You will feel extremely relaxed. The garden is very beautiful. Parking places are wide. The security staff has to get more training as they would always be behind you to check about photos, which is not good for tourism. They should understand their role much better, as we know we would not take photos in the main hall, whereas other places are allowed.

    Peaceful place to visit in Gulbarga: History: Gautama is the primary figure in Buddhism. He is recognized by Buddhists as an enlightened teacher who attained full Buddhahood, and shared his insights to help sentient beings end rebirth and suffering. Accounts of his life, discourses, and monastic rules are believed by Buddhists to have been summarized after his death and memorized by his followers. Various collections of teachings attributed to him were passed down by oral tradition and first committed to writing about 400 years later. Once you enter inside: There is a hall for meditation which is having Buddha's Statue. There is no Entry fee and Camera fee. There is also a garden inside Buddha Vihar. Avoid going there in sunny days or you will certainly burn your feet on a sunny day due to the marble heating. Seriously loved the way, it's maintained.

    Very cool and hygienic place. Full greenery and a good place to take pics. Completely free entrance. Not much to see only u can see the statue of Buddha nothing else u have to see. A drinking water facility is available but it's very hot. Better to take chilled water with you. Not at all a good time to visit in the afternoon but it will be closed after 1 pm.

    Great atmosphere, peaceful vibe. Well maintained, photography/videography not allowed inside. You will be asked to maintain silence. The ambiance is calming, and it's a great spot for reflection and meditation. The beautiful Buddha statue adds to the tranquility of the place. Great place for those seeking inner peace.

    Extremely spiritual place. One thing they do best is not allow mobiles so everyone experiences genuinely experiences this place. The main Statue / Murty of Lord buddha is so lively.
