Mahabodhi Temple Complex
The Mahabodhi Temple Complex in Bodh Gaya, India, has long been the most sacred site for pilgrims in the land of Buddhism. In point of fact, this very ancient temple stands on the site where Prince Siddhartha achieved enlightenment about 2,500 years ago to become the Buddha. For these profound spiritual attributes and symbolism, the Mahabodhi Temple is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and attracts millions every year. It contains the form of Mahabodhi Temple, which is an extremely large structure having a central tower that is approximately 55 meters tall. Architecturally, the temple is a very ideal example of Indian and Buddhist influence, since most of the walls here are made with intricate carvings of Buddha's statues. A primarily brick construction, it still remains to be one of the oldest brick temples in the country during the ancient period. The central shrine houses the Bodhi Tree, a direct descendant of the original tree under which Buddha sat and meditated upon enlightenmen
