Banka




Banka is the seat of administration of Banka District. It is situated 200 km south-east of Patna.

A trip to the Buddhist monasteries at Bhagalpur and the Kshatriya Kund Gram and temples at Jamui constitute interesting excursions. The fifteen day long Makara Sankranti mela held on the Mandar hills is another major draw.

Nearest airport is at Patna. Nearest railway station is at Barahat.
