The Buddhas Trail 6 Nights And 7 Days
Buddhism is a world-known religion that arose in and around the ancient Kingdom of Magadha (now in Bihar, India), and it's based on the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama -"Buddha."
Buddhism spread outside of Magadha, starting in the Buddha's lifetime. In modern times, two major branches of Buddhism exist, the Theravada in Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia, and the Mahyna throughout the Himalayas and East Asia. Buddhism is one of the most common religion in the Himalayan areas such as Sikkim, Ladakh, Arunachal Pradesh, the Darjeeling hills in West Bengal, and Lahaul and Spiti areas of upper Himachal Pradesh. According to the 2001 census, Buddhists make up 0.8% of India's population or 7.95 million individuals.
