Vikramshila

Vikramshila was a renowned ancient Buddhist university in India, established in the late 8th or early 9th century by King Dharmapala. It served as a major center for Buddhist learning, attracting students from across Asia, including Tibet, China, and Southeast Asia. The university offered advanced studies in philosophy, logic, medicine, and arts, fostering cultural and religious exchanges. Its influence declined by the 12th century due to invasions and decline of Buddhism in India. Today, Vikramshila is remembered as a significant symbol of India's rich historical tradition of education and religious scholarship.
