Is AIIMS Patna located on the outskirts of the city? Does it have malls and restaurants nearby and if not how much time would it take to reach main city and airport or station?

Owing to its massive size (134 acres), AIIMS Patna was built a little away from the main city. However, there are connectivity issues and many facilities are available that keep it well-connected to the city. There are many recreational places too that one can explore apart from studying

• A number of restaurants are built right outside AIIMS Patna such as Cafe’7, Second Wife Kitchen and Cafe, Champaran Meat House and Restaurant, etc.
• Recently, a new Monginis Cake Shop outlet has also opened outside AIIMS Patna
• At a distance of 5 km from the campus, a very good market and a new mall is there in Phulwari Sharif.
• At a distance of 7.5 km, many malls and restaurants can be found in the area of Anisabad situated around 7.5 km from AIIMS Patna. 

Transport issues are rare as a shared auto-rickshaw ride costs 10 rupees to Phulwari Sharif and 20 rupees to Anisabad from AIIMS Patna. Additionally, you can book Ola cabs and Rapido bike taxis. The campus enjoys good connectivity to the city and airport. Also, it just takes around half an hour to reach Gandhi Maidan. Recently, the elevated highway has started functioning making things much easier.
