📍 Speciality & significance

Gaya is the foremost place in India for Pind Daan and Shraddha — the rites for the peace and liberation (moksha) of departed ancestors — performed at the Vishnupad Temple, which enshrines a footprint of Vishnu, and along the Falgu (Phalgu) river, especially during the annual Pitru Paksha Mela.

A short drive away lies Bodh Gaya, where the Buddha attained enlightenment beneath the Bodhi tree, its UNESCO-listed Mahabodhi Temple a place of pilgrimage for Buddhists worldwide — making this a uniquely layered circuit of ancestral devotion and the great awakening.
