A place of historic importance. Buddha gave his first sermon to his disciples at this place. The Buddha statue is 80'9". A museum and a well maintained garden adds to the attraction

Very nice place and temple architecture is really great and different as it is build on thai architecture. Buddha statue is really big. They have small pond of lotus flowers and it has many fishes and frog inside it. Pond and other garden could maintain more better but still it is good and worth it place to visit.

Great place for a short visit. The garden and environment is very nicely maintained. Just visit for some scenic pictures.

Beware of the guides outside the place who’ll try to make some bucks out of you.

The country’s tallest standing statue of Buddha is located in Sarnath and a must visit if you are in Varanasi. All the temples and the stupas are nearby this statue and one can walk around easily to visit all the sites . A day is enough to explore the Sarnath and see all its glory.

This is my most favorite place because there is so much beauty here, it is a big statue of Buddha ji.
If we talk a little about its history :
The statue was conceived in 1970 when the society was formed with founder members of the joint Indo-Thai Project deciding to build a standing statue near the place of Lord Buddhas first sermon. Due to stone work and financial difficulties, work stopped for 3 years and recommenced in 2006.
They have some pictures for statue of Buddha .
