Nalanda Ruins

#springitinerary Exploring the ruins of Nalanda University is like stepping into a quiet time machine. This place used to be the Harvard of ancient India, seriously, scholars from all over Asia came here to study way back in the day (we’re talking 5th century vibes). Now it’s all red brick ruins and grassy courtyards, but there’s something super peaceful and powerful about walking through it. You can see old classrooms, meditation halls, and even the remains of massive libraries. It’s not flashy, but it feels sacred, like you can almost hear the whispers of ancient knowledge in the breeze. There’s a small but solid museum nearby too, with artifacts that bring it all to life. If you’re into history, spirituality, or just want a chill spot with soul, Nalanda totally delivers. Quiet, inspiring, and way cooler than your average ruins. Definitely worth the detour.
