Jalmandir at Pawapuri, Bihar. Lord Mahavira attained nirvana here around 523 BC. Legend has it, Mahavira was cremated here and there was a great rush to collect his ashes. So much soil was removed resulting in creation of a pond. Jalmandir was built in the middle of the pond. Now a marble temple, in the shape of a chariot, has Mahavira footprint for worship. #mahavira #jain #jainism #pawapuri #jalmandir #bihar #ajatshatru #history #indianhistory #incredibleindia #india🇮🇳 #postcardsoflife (at Pawapuri - Jal Mandir)

The Parinirvana Temple in Kushinagar, one of the four major Buddhist pilgrimage sites. Buddha died here around 483 BC. Ashoka built some stupas in Kushinagar around 260 BC, which expanded during Kushan empire and witnessed golden age during Gupta empire. Like other Buddhist shrines, it was largely forgotten & abandoned. Credit again goes to Sir Alexander Cunningham, who excavated the remains and conclusively proved that Buddha died here. Present temple was built by Indian Government in 1956 to commemorate 2500 years of Mahaparinirvana. #parinirvana #parinirvanatemple #mahaparinirvana #ramabhar #stupa #ramabharstupa #kushinagar #buddhism #buddha #ashoka #maurya #kushan #gupta #cunningham #history #indianhistory #incredibleindia 🇮🇳 #uptourism #india #postcardsoflife (at Parinirvana Stupa)
