Bodhi Tree

Reviewed By KarmaTempa - Gangtok, India

The inner sanctum of The Maha bodhi stupa is surreal.Once can just meditate there for hours even though so many people are doing their rounds of the stupa.Just to be in the very place where Lord Buddha attained enlightenment is enough to make it even more special. The evening times were even more beautiful with the colorful lights on the stupa and the chanting of prayers.One can just get lost in time here with no thoughts and that is precious. The only thing which can be changed is the guards whistle,which they blow to let people know that the timing of closing down the area is at hand.It is really disturbing and destroys the peace of the sanctum.

Nalanda University Ruins

Reviewed By Krishhere - Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), India

The ruins which were restored by the Archiological society of India in the 1950's depicts our glorious past dating back to the 5th century AD. The artifacts excavated are stored in the Nalanda museum which is opposite the ruins. The university is said to have had 10,000 students and 2,000 teachers. Only a part of the ruins have been escalated. Felt great to be at a place which is so much a part of the history and culture of India.
