About Pawapuri, Nalanda
Pawapuri is a holy site for the Jains. A long time ago, Pawapuri was the twin capital of Mall Mahajanpad. The place is very rich in culture and has a high heritage value. Some traditional festivals celebrated here include Rajgir Dance Festival and Chhath Puja. Various classical dances are performed in the Rajgir Dance Festival.
The place has also been given the name Apapuri meaning sinless town since Lord Mahavira was cremated here. After the cremation had been done, there was a rush while collecting the ashes which led to the removal of a layer of soil thereby resulting in the formation of a pond. This pond was later converted into a lotus pond, and a marble temple named Jalmandir was built in the centre of the pond.
