Bodhgaya is a village in the northeast Indian state of Bihar. Considered one of the most important Buddhist pilgrimage sites. It's dominated by the ancient brick Mahabodhi Temple Complex, built to mark the site where the Buddha attained enlightenment beneath a sacred Bohhi Tree. A direct descendant of the tree sits within the complex today, along with 6 other sacred sites, including a lotus pond.
