The modern city of Patna lies on the southern bank of the Ganges, as it flows past with the combined waters of the rivers Ghagra, Son and Gandak. A city of 1,800,000 people, the city is approximately 25 km long and 9 km to 10 km wide.
The Buddhist, Hindu and Jain pilgrim centres of Vaishali, Rajgir (or Rajgriha), Nalanda, Bodhgaya and Pawapuri are nearby and Patna is also a sacred city for Sikhs (the tenth and last "human" guru, Guru Gobind Singh, was born here).
Apart from being the administrative centre of the state and its historic importance, the city is also a major educational and medical centre. It is the centre for all the students from Bihar preparing for various competitive examinations.
The walled old area, called Patna City by the locals, is also a major trading centre.
