Bihar is the most impressive and beautiful state I've visited till now, I won't lie, but since all these years all I've heard about Bihar are the negative things, like people are bad,roads are extremely worse, it's a mess everywhere, and I kinda believed it also,and i entered Bihar ,prepared with that perception only .and guess what, i was wrong, I was wrong everywhere. Bihar was not at all like I expected, it has roads just like any other state and at some places better then others too. People are just so amazing and polite and the most well spoken I've ever met..
I rode about 700km in Bihar(both day and night), in national as well as, in interstate highways and wherever I went, there were just perfect roads, surrounded with beautiful landscapes all the way and wherever I stopped to fuel up my bike or for food, I received great hospitality from everyone.One who still think that Bihar is still not a good state to visit ,should visit there once,and all their misconceptions will be washed away for sure. Generally I'm never a person who clicks so many photos of one same place,but when I visited Mahabodhi temple, I just couldn't help my self, sharing different shades of Mahabodhi Temple.

A little tip ,if you are not aware of the history of Mahabodhi Temple or any other place ,you should hire a guide ,for the first half an hour i was just trying to find the history behind this place but couldn't, as everybody there was in silent phase or didn't know Hindi or English , and thus the guide can in real handy.should have hired him in the first place.
