Bodh Gaya is Buddhism's most sacred site, where Prince Siddhartha attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree 2,500 years ago and became the Buddha. The Mahabodhi Temple complex, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, marks this exact spot and draws Buddhist pilgrims from every corner of the world. The atmosphere here is incredibly peaceful with monks in colorful robes meditating, prayer flags fluttering, and chants filling the air. The town hosts temples built by Buddhist communities from Thailand, Japan, Tibet, Myanmar, and many other countries, each reflecting their unique architectural styles.
