Seven weeks after his enlightenment under Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya Buddha left Uruvela and traveled to Isipatana to rejoin them because, using his spiritual powers, he had seen that his five former companions would be able to understand Dharma quickly. The deer park in Sarnath is where Gautam Buddha first taught the Dharma and where the Buddhist Sangha came into existence through the enlightenment of his former five disciples. Buddhism flourished in Sarnath in part because of kings and wealthy merchants based in Varanasi.By the third century Sarnath had become an important center for the arts, which reached its zenith during the Gupta period (4th to 6th centuries CE). In the 7th century by the time Xuan Zang visited from China, he found 30 monasteries and 3000 monks living at Sarnath. At the end of the 12th century Sarnath was sacked by Turkish Muslims, and the site was subsequently plundered for building material. The great Dhamekh Stupa and several other structures stand testimony to the importance the place enjoyed at that time. The Chaukhandi Stupa is the place where, during his first visit to Sarnath, Lord Buddha met his first five disciples.
