Patna
is
the
largest
city
in
the
Indian
state
of
Bihar.
It
also
happens
to
be
among
the
most
ancient
cities
in
the
world.
Patna
is
the
capital
of
Bihar
and
is
situated
on
the
banks
of
the
Ganga
River.
The
city
was
originally
known
as
Pataliputra.
It
was
known
as
the
seat
of
learning
during
the
Mauryan
rule.
Patna
over
the
years
has
come
up
as
an
important
trade
center
in
the
country.
In
the
year
2009,
it
ranked
as
the
second
best
place
in
India
for
starting
a
business
by
the
World
Bank.
Patna
is
also
a
very
famous
pilgrimage
center
in
India.
It
has
some
of
the
most
sough
after
Buddhist,
Hindu,
and
Jain
pilgrim
centers
like;
Bodhgaya,
Rajgir,
Nalanda,
Vaishali
and
Pawapuri.
Patna
once
called
Pataliputra,
is
among
the
world's
oldest
capital
cities
with
unbroken
history
of
many
centuries
as
imperial
metropolis.
A
very
fertile
arched
stretch
of
land
along
the
bank
of
the
Ganga.
The
history
and
heritage
of
modern
day
Patna
go
back
well
over
two
millennia.
Like
Delhi,
Patna
too
had
been
the
regal
seat
of
governance
for
successive
kingdoms
since
ancient
times.
And
to
this
day,
it
is
the
capital
city
of
the
state.
As
each
ruler
ascended
in
power
and
established
dynastic
glory,
he
gave
his
capital
a
new
name.
Thus,
the
ancient
Kusumpura
metamorphosed
through
Pushpapura,
Pataliputra,
Azeemabad
and
now
into
Patna,
a
continuous
history
ranging
from
6th
century
BC
to
present
times
-‐
a
record
claimed
by
few
cities
in
the
world.
It
was
Ajatshatru

Magadha
king
who
first
built
a
small
fort
in
Pataligram
on
the
bank
of
the
Ganga
in
6th
century
BC,
which
later
blossomed
into

After

eclipse,
in
16th
century,
Sher
Shah
Suri
returned
the
city
to
its
former
glory
and
established
the

After
the
decline
of
the
Mughals,
the
British
too
found
Patna
a
convenient
regional
capital
and
built
a
modern
extension
to
this
ancient
city

called
it
Bankipore.
