Bodhgaya Temple

The Mahabodhi Temple complex is a beautiful place, where a lot of monks gather to chant and meditate at the feet of a huge statue of Buddha. Tourists gather to admire the life of the great soul, who had walked in flesh and blood to uplift humanity. Bodh Gaya is thronged by many tourists especially on Buddha Poornima, which falls in April end or the beginning of May every year.

The ornately made Mahabodhi Temple is the main draw of Bodh Gaya. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site preserved for its sheer antiquity. The holy Bodhi tree under which Buddha attained enlightenment is  the sight of the tree itself that brings peace to the mind of the beholder.
