Gaya is located on the banks of the Phalgu River and is surrounded by hills on three sides. It has a rich history dating back to ancient times and is mentioned in Hindu epics such as the Ramayana and Mahabharata. The city is also significant to Buddhists as it is the place where Buddha attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree.
It is believed that there are many places where one can find peace and contentment. Gaya Dham is a place where those who have sinned find deliverance from their wrongdoings. Besides its religious significance, it is also a place to relax and enjoy oneself as it offers various activities such as markets, festivals and adventure sports. It is for this reason that Gaya Dham attracts many pilgrims each year.
The pilgrimage to Gaya Dham is a spiritual journey of discovery and enlightenment. Located in the state of Bihar, India, it is the site where Maharshi Vedavyasa wrote both the Bhagavad Gita and Puranas. Thousands of pilgrims visit this holy site every year to reconnect with their roots and transcend into the spiritual realm.
