Question

why is bodhgaya important ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Bodh Gaya is a religious site and place of pilgrimage associated with the Mahabodhi Temple Complex in Gaya district in the Indian state of Bihar. It is famous as it is the place where Gautama Buddha is said to have attained Enlightenment (Pali: bodhi) under what became known as the Bodhi Tree

Answer 2

Answer:

Bodh Gaya links Buddhists with their founder. They think that it is important because the Buddha chose to become enlightened here and they feel as if they are in his presence. It also gives Buddhists an opportunity to congregate with Buddhists from all over the world and remember the foundation of their religion.
