"The Mahabodhi Temple Complex is one of the four holy sites related to
the life of the Lord Buddha, and particularly to the attainment of
Enlightenment. The first temple was built by Emperor Asoka in the 3rd
century B.C., and the present temple dates from the 5th or 6th
centuries. It is one of the earliest Buddhist temples built entirely in
brick, still standing in India, from the late Gupta period." -http://whc.unesco.org
A great card with a great view!
Thank you so much KB Dessai for sharing this wonderful card with me...
"This card depicts the Mahabodhi Temple Complex.
It is the place where Gautama Buddha attained enlightenment.
The card shows the main temple, 2 monks meditating & the
Bodhi Tree (on the left side of the card) --- the tree under which
Buddha attained his enlightenment.", KB Dessai shares...
