The term Nalanda literally translates to "a region that confers the lotus." This ancient city was an important center of Buddhist learning in between the 5th and 12th centuries.

Rock edicts indicate that Lord Buddha visited Nalanda several times during his lifetime, though the region became famous only after the establishment of the Nalanda University. The region was also visited by Vardhaman Mahavira on several occasions.
