Bodhgaya,
In the State of Bihar, gained prominence as one of the most important
Buddhist centers. It was here that Sakyamuni (Gautam Buddha) entered into
meditation. The giant Bodhi Tree (Peepal) that stands today, is believed to
have grown from the original Bodhi Tree under which, sitting on a raised
platform, Prince Siddharth meditated and finally attained Nirvana. Then
there is the Chaukramana, The Jewel Walk, where it is believed that the
Buddha paced while in meditation. ![]() |
