Contact SupplierLocated about 10 kilometres in the north-east direction of Varanasi, Sarnath is the place where Gautama Buddha had first preached a group of disciples. This is also the very place where the Buddhist Sangha came into existence through the enlightenment of Kondanna - a king who became the follower of Lord Buddha.
Sarnath takes its name from Sarangnath also referred to as the Deer God. The city is also known as Isipatana and has been regarded as one of the four sites of pilgrimage by Lord Buddha himself. Thus, if you are someone who prefers quiet places; and want to be somewhere you can contemplate as well as know the great history of India, then, Sarnath is the place to be at.
