Among the places to visit in Bodh Gaya the most important ones are the Mahabodhi Temple, Chankramana, Animesh Lochan Chaitya, Ratnagarh and Bodhi Tree.

Of all the places to see in Bodh Gaya the Bodhi Tree occupies an important space in the pantheon of Buddhism. It is the spot where the Great One gained the ultimate knowledge and endeavored to spread it around the world. The Mahabodhi Temple is a piece of architectural genius. The Animesh Lochan Chaitya is supposedly the spot from where Buddha paid his homage to the Bodhi Tree by looking at it for a week without even batting an eyelid!
