Rajgir is famous as Jain Teerth from ancient times. Twentieth Teerthankar   Bhagwan MuniSuvratnath's four Kalyanka - Garbha, Janma, Tapa and Gyan (Jnan)   were celebrated at this sacred place. This place was capital of King Jarasandha   (Contemporary to Lord Krishna & Bhagwan Neminath) and capital of the emperor   of Magadha King Shrenik (Bimbsar). King Shrenik was the principal disciple of   Bhagwan Mahaveer. Rajgrahi had the great strategic importance also at that   time.
 From the five hills of Rajgrahi – Vipulachala, Ratnagiri, Udaigiri,   Arungiri (Swarngiri) and Vaibhavgiri. So many ascetic saints attained salvation   going through deep meditation and penance. Jivandhara, Swet Sundarva, Vaishakha,   Vidyuchchara, Gandhamadana, Preetinkara, Dhandatta are famous among them. So   this place is also famous as Siddha Kshetra.
 
 Bhagwan Mahaveer stayed here   in Chaturmaas (Four months period of rainy season), fourteen times in the state   of Muni. His first Samavsharan was also established here on Vipulachala after   attaining Kevalgyan (omniscience) and he delivered his first precept from here   for the persons and all living beings desiring to get free from the mesh of   worldly worries and affairs.
 
 This is the place, where great scholar of   Vedas and supporter of Yagya - Indrabhooti Gautam with his 500 disciples came in   the shelter of Bhagwan Mahaveer and became the first and principal   Gandhara.
 
 Gautam Buddha, the founder of Buddha Dharma (Religion) also   came here so many times with his Sangha. Rajgrahi is also the place of faith for   Hindus, Sikhs, Muslims, Christians, Bauddhas.
 
 So this place is   recognized as the International Tourism Centre in the   world.

 One   should go to Udaigiri from Vipulachala, where two temples are present. While   digging two ancient Jain temples are also found here. Idols recovered from these   two ancient temples are placed in Lal Mandir (Situated in valley).
 
 A path   passing through the valley goes to fourth hill Swarnagiri, there are three   temples. While one comes down to go to fifth hill, a Cave named Sonbhandar Gufa   comes in the path. In this cave Jain idols are carved on the walls.
 
 Last   hill is Vaibhavgiri, where five temples are established. Here a huge ancient   Jain temple is recovered after digging with 24 rooms in it. This is about 1200   years old and many ancient artistic idols are established here.
 
 1.5 Kms   ahead of this last hill, a pair of foot images of Ganadhar Bhagwan are worth   being seen.
 
 In the valley, ruins of palaces of King Shrenik are   found.
