Rajagriha

王舍城

印度比哈爾邦

譯名為Rajgir。位於印度比哈爾邦(Bihar),距離那爛陀寺遺址(Nalanda)約15公里,菩提伽耶西北約70公里。四周由五座小丘環繞。為古印度摩揭陀國頻婆娑羅王(約543~491 BCE在位)、阿闍世王(491~459 BCE在位)等在位時的都城,釋迦牟尼佛傳教中心地之一。據《善見律毘婆沙》卷一記載,當地有竹林精舍及十八座大寺院。阿育王(約269~232 BCE在位)巡禮該地時曾造石柱與塔。五世紀初中國求法僧法顯至此巡禮時,該城已沒落,竹林精舍尚有僧人居住。七世紀玄奘大師遊歷至此,該城已荒蕪,僅見基址。十九世紀,英國考古學家康寧漢等人發掘該城,發現多處佛教遺蹟。
 王舍城今被證實的佛教遺蹟包括靈鷲山、竹林精舍、頻婆娑羅王牢獄、阿闍世王塔、畢波羅石房、七葉窟、阿育王塔和石柱等。靈鷲山為著名的佛陀說法之地。頻婆娑羅王牢獄是頻婆娑羅王被阿闍世王子囚禁之處。畢波羅石房乃大迦葉修行之處。七葉窟則是佛陀入滅後第一次經典結集之處。
