Vaishali is also home to possibly the earliest known example of a stupa, the Buddha relic stupa which is said to contain the ashes of the Buddha.
This sacred site is revered as the place where Lord Buddha attained Parinirvana, the final and complete liberation from the cycle of birth and death. One of the biggest Buddhist attractions of this place is the Parinirvana Temple.
The Mahabodhi Temple was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2002. Impressive as it is, the temple complex didn't always look this way. Prior to 1880, when it was restored by the British, all accounts indicate that it was a sadly neglected for and partially collapsed ruin.
