From Pataliputra to Vihar

All call it Bihar a state in India and its capital is Patna.Everytthing here is said to be out of order in any scale.I have read about it in the school books and during college days.In ancient,moghul,and british history,it had a place of pride.One day I ventured to see the place.The capital is Patna.In ancient history it is Pataliputra.There is still a place named Pataliputra and people still know about the well where Samrat Ashoka(one among three great As)killed 99 brothers and threw them into the well.It is  very deep and reaches the Ganges mainstream people say.It is that Samrat(emperor)who converted to Buddhism faught a war killing many people in 261 BC and then converted to Buddhism.It is a travelogoue I want to put in as I am leading towards the  great Vihar.
