Royal Orchid Holidays invites you to Bodh Gaya, India, the sacred land where the Buddha attained Enlightenment (Anuttara Samma Sambodhi). This city is not only a significant religious site but also serves as a crucial center for Buddhist studies and meditation practice for Buddhists worldwide.

Begin your journey by visiting the Mahabodhi Tree, the sacred tree symbolizing the Buddha's enlightenment. Under its shade, the Buddha meditated and practiced until achieving enlightenment. This site is a crucial destination for pilgrims worldwide who come to pay homage and replenish their spiritual faith.

From Bodh Gaya, you'll travel to Rajgir, a city where the Buddha once resided and gave sermons to his important disciples, including Sariputta and Moggallana. Key highlights include visits to Vulture Peak (Gridhakuta), where the Buddha disseminated his teachings, and Veluvana, the first monastery in Buddhism. Another significant stop is the Thai Temple in Bodh Gaya, located near the Mahabodhi Temple. Its ubosot (ordination hall) is modeled after Wat Benchamabophit (The Marble Temple) in Bangkok, perfectly capturing the beauty of Rattanakosin architecture both inside and out.

This trip also includes paying respects to the Black Buddha (Luang Pho Ong Dam), a revered Buddha image in the Black Buddha Temple, respected by Buddhists worldwide. Those who have the opportunity to chant and meditate here often experience a profound sense of faith and tranquility.

Throughout the journey, Buddhist missionary monks will provide dharma teachings to enhance your understanding of the Buddha's teachings. Thai meals will be served at every meal, prepared by Thai chefs, adding warmth and comfort to every moment of this trip.
