Buildings and structures in Bihar

tomb in Sasaram town of Bihar state, India

Odantapuri (also called Odantapura or Uddandapura) was a prominent Buddhist monastic university in what is now Bihar Sharif in Bihar, India. It is believed to have been established by the Pala ruler Gopala I in the 8th century. It is considered the second oldest of India's Mahaviharas after Nalanda and was situated in Magadha. Inscriptional evidence also indicates that the Mahavihara was supported by local Buddhist kings like the Pithipatis of Magadha.
