Jail of Bimbisar, one of the Historical Site in Ancient Rajgriha.

Bimbisara was the son of Bhattiya, a chieftain. He ascended to throne at the age of 15 in 543 BC.[11] He established the Haryanka dynasty laid the foundations of Magadha by fortification of a village, which later became the city of Pataliputra.[12] Bimbisara's first capital was at Girivraja (identified with Rajagriha). He led a military campaign against Anga, perhaps to avenge his father's earlier defeat at the hands of its king, Brahmadatta. The campaign was successful, Anga was annexed, and prince Kunika (Ajatashatru) was appointed governor at Champa.[13] Bimbisara sent Jivaka, his physician, to Ujjain for medical treatment of Pradyota, the king of Avanti, from jaundice.[14] Pukkusati, the king of Gandhara, sent Bimbisara an embassy.[11] Marriage alliances Bimbisara used marriage alliances to strengthen his position. His first wife was Kosala Devi, the daughter of Mahā Kosala the king of Kosala, and a sister of Prasenjit. His bride brought him Kashi, which was then a mere village, as dowry.[15] This marriage also ended the hostility between Magadha and Kosala and gave him a free hand in dealing with the other states. His second wife, Chellana, was a Lichchhavi princess from Vaishali and daughter of King Chetaka.[16] His third wife, Kshema, was a daughter of the chief of the Madra clan of Punjab.[17] Mahavagga depict him of having 500 wives.[11] These marriage alliances paved the way for the expansion of Magadha Empire both westward and northward.[citation needed] Death Bimbisara's jail, where King Bimbisara was imprisoned, in Rajgir According to the tradition, Bimbisara was imprisoned by his son Ajatashatru to ascend the throne of the kingdom of Magadha. Ajatashatru later ordered his father's release after the birth of his first child, but by then it was too late and Bimbisara had already died. This was reported to have taken place around 491 BC

Ajatashatru, Ajatashattu or Ajatasatru was one of the most important kings of the Haryanka dynasty of Magadha in East India. He was the son of King Bimbisara and was a contemporary of both Mahavira and Gautama Buddha. He forcefully took over the kingdom of Magadha from his father and imprisoned him

A place of history where King Bimbisar was held captive by his son Ajatshatru in 5th century BC. Folklore goes that Bimbisar chose the place himself on insistence of his son so that he can enjoy the view of ascent Lord Buddha everyday to the mountain of Griddhakuta hills. This spot appears somewhat neglected and needs more upkeep and maintenance.

Basically it's a historical place to see ...

(Translated by Google) This place is a historical site of Buddhism, this relic is still a vacant space surrounded by a solid stone wall.This is the prison of King Bimbisar (Tan-Bà-sa-la or Bình-sa). King) was the first disciple of Shakyamuni Buddha in the ranks of the king, he realized that his veluvana garden contained the key elements of an ideal place for the Sangha, so he made his mind Offering offerings to the Buddha and the monks of this bamboo forest. Around 491 B.C.E., when King Qin-Bà-sa-la was 67 years old, a tragedy happened: Prince A-so-so, incited by De-Ba-da-da, conspired to kill his father to usurp the throne. One day, late at night, Arahant broke into the king's electric pot. Seeing his suspicious appearance, the musketeer immediately held him to examine, and found a sword hidden in the cross of his shirt. They brought Adam in to his father, told his story, and presented the sword to him. When the king asked, A-so-so said, because he wanted to be king, he intended to kill his father. He also said that he had been drawn up by De-Madam and planned a scheme. Thread-she-reached-multi. So, he also decided to downgrade, give the throne to Prince A-so. The new king will hold the ceremony 10 days later. However, instead of dedicating himself to goodness, two days after Qin-Bà-sa-la issued the decree of abdication, A-bar-so arrested Qin-ba-sa-la in prison. After his coronation, Aquarius refused to let go of his father, but was determined to starve him gradually. Only Queen Vaidehy was allowed to visit. Whenever she goes, she hides food in her pocket and gives it to her husband. This was revealed and she was rebuked by Aquarius. Later, she hid food in her hair again. A-so-so also know. Along the way, she washed and washed herself with a food made of honey, sugar and milk. Qin-ba-sa-la ripple this dish to feed. But also known by Arahant. He completely forbade her to visit her father anymore. At that time, Tan-Bà-sa-la was still willing to go hungry, and did not blame her son. Remembering the Buddha's teaching, he was still living peacefully and calmly, still meditating along the prison corridor, and meditating in the iron-bar window.This window looked straight up at Gijjhakuta mountain Every day he sat in that place for a long time to look at the mountain. After the Buddha was kicked by De-BA-reach-da in Linh Thuu mountain, King Tan-ba-sa-la also died in prison. His death was so tragic: because he saw that his father was still happy, Ahaz so ordered the barber to go in and examine, took a knife to sharpen the heel of Qin-ba-la-la, rubbed oil and salt. heat to death. (Original) Nơi đây là địa điểm lịch sử của Phật giáo,di tích này còn lại là một khoảng đất trống bao bọc bởi bức tường đá kiên cố.Nơi đây là nhà tù giam vua Bimbisar (Tần-bà-sa-la hay Bình-sa vương)là đệ tử đầu tiên của Phật Thích ca trong hàng vua chúa.Ông nhận thấy khu vườn Trúc lâm (veluvana)của Ông chứa đựng những yếu tố then chốt của một nơi an cư lý tưởng cho Tăng đoàn,nên đã phát tâm cúng dường Phật và chư tăng khu rừng tre này. Khoảng năm 491 TCN, khi vua Tần-bà-sa-la đến 67 tuổi thì tai biến xảy ra: Thái tử A-xà-thế, do bị Đề-bà-đạt-đa xúi giục, âm mưu sát hại vua cha để chiếm ngôi. Một hôm, đang lúc đêm khuya, A-xà-thế đột nhập vào tẩm điện của vua cha. Thấy dáng vẻ khả nghi, ngự lâm quân liền giữ anh ta lại để xét, và tìm thấy một thanh gươm được giấu trong chéo áo của anh ta. Họ đưa A-xà-thế vào trình diện vua cha, kể lạ tự sự, và dâng thanh gươm cho ông xem. Khi vua vặn hỏi thì A-xà-thế nói rằng, vì muốn làm vua nên định giết cha. Anh ta cũng nói rằng mình đã được Đề-bà-đạt-đa bày vẽ và sắp đặt mưu kế.Vốn thầm nhuần đạo lý về Tứ tâm của Phật Thích-ca, Tần-bà-sa-la không giận cả con trai lẫn Đề-bà-đạt-đa. Đã vậy, ông còn quyết định hạ chiếu thoái vị, nhường ngôi cho thái tử A xà-thế. Vị tân vương sẽ làm lễ 10ngày sau đó.Làm như vậy Tần-bà-sa-la hi vọng rằng A-xà-thế và Đề-bà-₫ạt-₫a sẽ cảm thấy đức độ của mình mà hồi tâm hướng thiện.Vậy mà, thay vì hồi tâm hướng thiện, hai ngày sau khi Tần-bà-sa-la ban chiếu chiếu thoái vị, A-xà-thế đã bắt giam Tần-bà-sa-la vào ngục thất. Sau khi đăng quang, A-xà-thế nhất quyết không chịu thả vua cha ra, lại còn quyết tâm bỏ đói cho ông chết dần. Chỉ một mình Thái hậu Vaidehy được phép vào thăm. Mỗi khi đi, bà giấu đồ ăn trong túi áo đem cho chồng. Việc này bị bại lộ và bà bị A-xà-thế quở trách. Về sau, bà lại giấu đồ ăn trong tóc. A-xà-thế cũng biết được. Cùng đường, bà tắm rửa sạch sẽ và thoa vào mình một thứ đồ ăn làm bằng mật ong, đường và sữa. Tần-bà-sa-la gợn lấy món ăn này để nuôi sống. Nhưng cũng bị A xà-thế biết được. Anh ta cấm hẳn bà không được vào thăm vua cha nữa.Lúc ấy, Tần-bà-sa-la vẫn cam chịu đói, không oán trách vua con. Nhớ lời Phật dạy, ông vẫn sống an lạc và bình thản, vẫn thiền hành theo hành lang nhà ngục, và thiền tọa nơi cửa sổ có chấn song sắt.Cửa số này ngó thẳng lên núi Linh Thứu (Gijjhakuta), vì vậy nên hằng ngày ông ngồi rất lâu ở chỗ đó để nhìn núi.Sau lần Phật bị Đề-bà-đạt-đa lăn đá mưu hại ở núi Linh Thứu, thì vua Tần-bà-sa-la cũng chết trong ngục thất. Cái chết của ông rất thế thảm: nguyên vì thấy vua cha vẫn vui tươi, A xà-thế nên hạ lệnh cho người thợ cạo vào khám, lấy dao bén gọt gót chân Tần-bà-sa-la, xát dầu và muối rồi hơ lên lửa nóng đến chết.

Bimbisar jail. Need security guards for preservation.

After becoming a King, Ajatshatru actually put his father King Bimbisara in this jail built inside the Ajatshatru Fort, generally contrary to popular belief. It generally is one of the most well-known places to visit in Rajgir because of its kind of ancient history, definitely contrary to popular belief. The king was detained here because of his devotion to Lord Buddha and particularly was definitely moved to another small room during his kind of last days so that he can literally see and hear Lord Buddha who was staying in the fort at that time, which is fairly significant. Surrounded by stone pillars and generally high walls, this jail is situated near the Maniyar Math. You can essentially admire the ruins and generally learn about Indian history and also actually get a panoramic view of the really famous Japanese Peace Pagoda at the particularly top of the hill. You can also really explore the Ajatshatru fort, Shanti Stupa, and the Cyclopean wall nearby.It kind of is a historical place in a subtle way.

So amazing and strange place.

Bimbisar was imprisoned by his own son Ajatashatru at this place 2.5 millennium ago....The spot throws one back in time to imagine how it would have been then!

It's of archeological importance and an important site in history of Gautam the buddha.

Unfortunate place where a son imprisoned his father, King Bimbisara, but significant in Buddhist history. Below photo where you can see Vulture’s Peak from a corner of the jail, as described in the suttas.

Buddhist site where Prince Ajatasatu imprisoned his father for incitement by Bhante Devadata

The entire Jail seems to be hidden underground. Rooms layouts can be seen from the top. The approach vent to go underground is blocked.

Just foundations left, but good to see that all is so real history! He could well be a symbol of innocent victim. Visiting is free.

Good place to visit

One of the important historical place.

Ruins are there. Historical place but lonly place.

No tickets. No structures. Just plain land visible in pictures

Bimbisar was jailed in this place place by his son Ajatsatru. As Bimbisar was a disciple of Lord Buhha, he didn't avenge the misdeeds of his son. It is said that King Bimbisar himself had chosen the place as from there he would stare at the opposite hill top where Lord Buddha would reside occasionally.

Just a small boundary pit where bimbisar was kept . There is a board put up which will tell you all the details and the site is on the road back from the Laxman jhula

Historical place but nothing much to see.

Historical place

This is the place where ajatshatru kept his father in handcuffs , which are preserved by the govt from the place and dated back to same era, bimbisar was from haryank clan

Unfortunately nothing has been preserved and this looks absolutely chide. However for all the history nerds you can apply your all knowledge in creating the 6th century old Magadh kingdom ruled by the Haryak rulers through your imagination.

After Bimbisara handed over the kingdom over to his son Ajatsattu, the new heir became paranoid that his father may reclaim it. Overwhelmed by the fear, he had Bimbisara imprisoned without food, hoping the king would die. Bimbisara’s wife, Queen Vedehi was the only permitted visitor who kept her husband alive by smuggling food for him. When the king’s health did not deteriorate, the Queen was searched and all her smuggled food was confiscated. So she smeared paste of milk, honey, and floor all over her body for the king to lick off, but the plot was detected soon and she was debarred from meeting her husband altogether. Bimbisara still kept himself alive by his meditative powers, and would draw inspiration to see the Buddha walking up to the Vulture Peak to meditate. Getting impatient, Ajatsattu ordered his guards to slit his father veins. Bimbisara died without a hatred. The same day Ajatasattu’s wife bore him a son, Udayibhadda. Feeling great love for his son, Ajatasattu asked his mother whether his father also loved him so. “No father could have loved his son more,” she said. “One time when you were a child, your father sucked on a boil that developed on your finger to help ease the pain. When the boil burst, he did not even take your finger out of his mouth to spit out the pus, fearing that its disgusting sight might frighten you. This is how deeply your father loved you.” Ajatasattu realized his grave mistake and rushed to call off the orders to have his father killed, but it was too late. Ajatasattu was full of remorse, and was long haunted by fears of being murdered for the throne. His fears were realized many years later when he was killed by the hand of his own son.

How can I describe it.. let's say there is nothing here. I am not joking. Bimbisar treasury is a different place commonly known as swarn bhandar. But It's a different place. It's said that there was a jail here where bimbisar was kept. But when you will reach here, It's just a plain field with a stone stage and some boundries of approx 2 - 3 feet around that stage. Also an arch on entrance.

This is place of historical importance, nothing is at site. Authorities must make it presentable by creating some replica or museam. If you do not visit this place you will not miss much.

There is a very solid story... Historical place... The king bimbisar had imprisoned his father here for some reason... When this place was excavated, the discoverer found bedded in the skeleton of the people, one of which was the skeleton of his father...
