1. Bodhgaya – The Place of Enlightenment
Start your soulful journey at Bodhgaya, where Siddhartha became the Buddha under the sacred Bodhi Tree. The Mahabodhi Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, stands as an eternal symbol of awakening. Meditate beneath the tree, observe monks chanting, and let the air of devotion wrap around you.
2. Sarnath – The First Sermon
Next, visit Sarnath, near Varanasi, where the Buddha shared his first sermon and set the wheel of Dharma turning. The Dhamek Stupa and Mulagandha Kuti Vihara and the serene Deer Park mark this landmark moment in Buddhist history. Walking here, you’ll sense the dawn of the teaching of emptiness and compassion.

3. Nalanda – The Ancient Seat of Wisdom
Then proceed to Nalanda, once the world’s most renowned Buddhist university. Though now in ruins, the red-brick courtyards and monasteries still echo with centuries of monastic scholarship and devotion. It’s a place where knowledge and spirituality met.
4. Lumbini – The Birthplace of the Buddha
Optionally, extend your pilgrimage into Nepal to Lumbini, where Prince Siddhartha was born. The Maya Devi Temple, pilgrimage gardens and international monasteries built by many Buddhist nations make this a profoundly peaceful and global place of faith.
The ideal season for the pilgrimage from Nagpur is between October and March, when weather is cool and skies are clear—making visits to Bodhgaya, Nalanda and Nepal the most comfortable. Festivals in Bodhgaya during this season add spiritual depth to your journey.
