The State of Bihar in India has the longest history, reaching back over 3010 years. More that 6,132,000 tourists visited Bihar last year to enjoy the multitude of cultures, temples and important historical attractions and sites.

Bihar has some important, and ancient universities like the Vikramasila University and the Nalanda University.

The Ganges River flows through this state and is important for very transportation of commerce. The Pink Dolphins are found here and are a protected species. The Vikramshila Gangetic Dolphin Sanctuary is dedicated to saving the dolphins.

The Valmiki National Park and Tiger Reserve has a rich variety of animals and habitat suited to rare species. This is a favorite attraction for wildlife photographers.

It's chilly in the winter months, December through January and warm until April when it gets its hottest. The monsoon months are June to September when you can expect lots of rain.

I visited India twice last year and thoroughly enjoyed both trips. India is vast, and has many obstacles if you don't know what you are doing and how to navigate around the country properly. This is okay if you are an adventurous young soul with a year of so to spare, however, a knowledgeable tour guide is highly recommended if you want to enjoy the best attractions the best way possible, saving time, money and a lot of stress.
