In Bodh Gai is the famous temple complex, which attracts many pilgrims from all over the world. The most important is the temple of Mahabodhi with a diamond throne (Vajrasana) and adjacent to the temple of the sacred Bodhi tree. This tree was grown from the seed of the Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi tree in Sri Lanka, which in turn came from the original Mahabodhi tree under which Buddha found Enlightenment.
