One of the best place I have visited in my life. A peaceful devine place packed with so much history.

Mahabodhi Temple is believed to be built 2300 Years back by King Asoka (upto the little wooden door)
The current structure is believed to be constructed in 7th Century and the Statute of Lord Buddha was placed inside the temple then by Burmese King.

The temple is spread in grand Campus of 11.5 Acres. Having all 7 place where Lord Buddha meditated and attained the enlightenment.

Make sure you reserve some to sit in front of the Mahabodhi Tree, it gives a different perspective altogether.

Currently (during the COVID-19 Spread) the Temple is open from 5AM to 1PM and 3PM - 7PM. You have to walk inside the temple to observe the beauty of it. It is advisable to hire a decent guide or else go through the history of the temple before visiting the sample to get the insights of the special spots in the premises.

Be informed that Mobile Phones (of any sorts) are not allowed inside the campus, however, if you are willing to capture photos inside, you can bring cameras for which you have to pay minimal charges.
