Nadwan (Hindi: नदवाँ, Urdu: نادوان), a village in Patna district in Bihar in India, is located about 24 km south from Patna and 70 km north from Gaya, the place where Gautum Buddha got enlightenment. Patna's ancient names are Pataliputra and Kusumpur and it was the capital of the great Magadh empire for a very long period of time. It is established on NH-73, and has a very old Railway station(1n 1934) on Patna - Gaya railway route. this railway station is main focus of attraction for nearby 30-35 villages.

The village Nadwan was once considered one of the most respected village in the Patna district. However, due to the rise of anti-social activities (between 1998-2002), this village has lost its past glory. But now its glory is coming on track.
