Shravasti - Eight Important Pilgrimage Site

Lord Buddha had spent most of his monastic life in the Gangetic plains of Northern India, Southern Nepal, and its surrounding areas. Thus, these places are deemed most important since these places had experienced some of the significant events of Lord Buddha. Thus, four sites are most worthy of pilgrimage of Buddhist followers, and Gautama Buddha is said to have identified these four sites as most worthy and are called the Four Most Important Pilgrimage Sites. They are Lumbini, Bodh Gaya, Sarnath, and Kushinagar. But in later Buddhist tradition, the other four sites were given a special status since these sites had experienced certain miracles by Lord Buddha. Thus, these eight sites are known as "The Eight Great Places" or Attha-mahathanani. These four sites are Shravasti, Rajgir, Sankassa and Vaishali.
