Bodh Gaya

0  Views

This region in Bihar is the site where, 2600 years ago, Prince Siddhartha attained enlightenment under a Bodhi tree and became Buddha. It is a popular place for people who want to sit in peace and pray, study, or meditate. The Tibetan monks from McLeod Ganj visit between November and March, so this is perhaps the best time to experience Bodh Gaya in all its glory. If you’re lucky, you may even get to meet the Dalai Lama.
