India travel guide

India - Bihar & Jharkand (Chapter)

This is the Bihar & Jharkhand chapter from Lonely Planet's India guidebook.

Though long-harnessed as pilgrim country for the devout, Bihar & Jharkhand remain pioneer travel territory for the average tourist and are perhaps more representative of traditional India than any other northern states as a result. 

  • witness the spiritual dawn spectacle at the serene Mahabodhi Temple in Bodhgaya
  • maps
  • journey to the lost capital of Magadha through the ancient ruins, fascinating temples and modern-day monuments around Rajgir
  • transport
  • join the Jain pilgrimage to the top of Jharkhand's highest point, the 1366m-high Parasnath Hill, and visit its impressive 31 temples
  • restaurants & accommodation

Coverage includes: Bihar, Patna & around, Raxaul, Gaya, Bodhgaya, Rajgir & around, Kundalpur & around, Jharkhand and Betla (Palamau) National Park.
