Fifteen days allow a much more relaxed pilgrimage journey. A possible structure begins in Lumbini, continues through Kushinagar and Shravasti, moves toward Sarnath, and then continues to Bodh Gaya, Rajgir, Nalanda and Vaishali.
The extra days can be used for museums, monasteries, local cultural experiences and rest. Travellers interested in archaeology may prefer to spend more time at Nalanda and Sarnath rather than adding many additional destinations.
The route should be adjusted to current transport and border conditions. Do not treat an online itinerary as a promise of travel time.
