There are various types of places where Buddha stayed. The most important kind are those monasteries which were given for his (or the: Sangha's) use. Also, sometimes he was invited to stay in someone's garden/house. Or he just stayed in theāāwilderness (a forest without owner). All these places are located in the Gangetic Plain (located in Northern India and Southern Nepal).
