Bihar has a rich state in art-heritage remains and religions harmony. West Camparan district is siuated between 26081'N and 84051'N. West Champaran was a religious place for devotees of Buddhism, Vaishnava, Shaiva, Shkta, and Saur Communities. Within Mauryan Heritage, Lauriya Nandangarh Stupa, Lauriya Nandangarh Pillar, Rampurva Pillar were built before Independence. During explorations, Dharharimai Sthan, Parvati Sthan, Mariha and Bahuvarva Kala (Stupas) were found by myself in 2015-2016. In this proposed paper, Mauryan Heritage site in West Champaran District in Bihar will be discussed.
