How To Reach Ruins of Ancient Kushinagar
The Archaeological Landscape: These ruins encompass the excavated foundations of numerous ancient monasteries (Viharas), smaller votive stupas, and shrines that once made up the thriving Buddhist city of Kushinagara. They date from the Mauryan period (3rd century BCE) through the Gupta period (4th t o 7th centuries CE) and later, showing continuous religious activity until the site was abandoned around the 12th Century. The ruins are protected and maintained by the ASI and are primarily located in the large park area surrounding the Mahaparinirvana Temple and Parinirvana Stupa, providing a tangible sense of the scale of the ancient city. They are critical historical evidence confirming the accounts of the Chinese pilgrims like Xuanzang.:
