  • Favorite Thing: A hand drawn map highlights the major sites that one can visit; most famous that all go to are Dharmarajika, Sirkup and Jaulian, which are also easily accessible. Please note that the map is not to scale, but Jaulian is approx. 4-5 km from the Museum.

    Fondest Memory: Nice green fields; oranges during season

     I think I will have to undertake a visit to our Nalanda as well. These places need to brought in VT. There is not a single tip on VT about the place. Great tips by you as usual on Taxila.

     I'll happily confess my knowledge of Taxila was slight (read near nil) till I read this excellent page. What a marvellous historical site this is!
