The Sabhyata Dwar, or Civilization Gate, is a 32-metre-high sandstone arch monument erected on the banks of the Ganga River in Patna, Bihar, completed in 2018. Built in Mauryan-style architecture, it was conceived to commemorate the ancient glory of Pataliputra and the cultural heritage of Bihar. The structure, which rises 6 metres taller than the Gateway of India, was constructed at a cost of ₹5 crore and occupies one acre within the Samrat Ashok International Convention Centre. Its arches feature inscriptions attributed to Megasthenes, Ashoka, Buddha, and Mahavira. Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar inaugurated the monument on 21 May 2018.
