"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. Criterion (i): The grand 50m high Mahabodhi Temple of the 5th-6th centuries is of immense importance, being one of the earliest temple constructions existing in the Indian sub-continent. It is one of the few representations of the architectural genius of the Indian people in constructing fully developed brick temples in that era. Criterion (ii): The Mahabodhi Temple, one of the few surviving examples of early brick structures in India, has had significant influence in the development of architecture over the centuries. Criterion (iii): The site of the Mahabodhi Temple provides exceptional records for the events associated with the life of Buddha and subsequent worship, particularly since Emperor Asoka built the first temple, the balustrades, and the memorial column. Criterion (iv): The present Temple is one of the earliest and most imposing structures built entirely in brick from the late Gupta period. The sculpted stone balustrades are an outstanding early example of sculptural reliefs in stone. Criterion (vi): The Mahabodhi Temple Complex in Bodh Gaya has direct association with the life of the Lord Buddha, being the place where He attained the supreme and perfect insight. 📸 © query_squidier"

"L'ensemble du temple de la Mahabodhi constitue l'un des quatre lieux saints associés à la vie du Bouddha, et notamment à son Éveil. Le premier temple a été érigé par l'empereur Asoka au IIIe siècle av. J.C., alors que le temple actuel date du Ve ou VIe siècle ap. J.-C. C'est l'un des plus anciens temples bouddhistes en Inde qui soit toujours debout, et l'un des rares temples de la fin de la période Gupta construits entièrement en briques !"

"UNESCO World Heritage Before the Buddha died, he summoned his disciples to remember the four important places where major events took place in his life Amang these places was Bodh Gaya. As with other religions, the topographical element has its place in Buddhism, Indeed, according to a specific time period and geographic coordinates, a site can become a pilgrimage center. This is the case for Bodh Gaya, believed to be where the Buddha Shakyamuni reached enlightenment in the seated position on the diamond throne, with his hands touching the earth beneath the Bo tree, or sacred fig. The worshipping of the tree is not exclusive to Buddhism: it has been a folk tradition since the Indus Valley civilization. Every consequent event in the Buddha's life occurred in the presence of a different type of tree. The diamond throne and a reconstitution of the sacred tree are found at Bodh Gaya at the west comer of the temple, Although the dating of the Mahabodhi temple is contested, it is believed that it was erected during the fifth or sixth century, In the nineteenth century the British had it rebuilt. The temple is oriented eastward in the direction of the rising sun. The original railing leading to the temple where pilgrims circumambulate is believed to date from the second-century Shunga dynasty. Initially, the decorations depicting the life of the Buddha were not in anthropomorphic form. Instead, Buddhist symbols such as the stupa, the wheel, the empty throne, or the royal umbrella were used to imply the dedication of the shrine to the Great Lord. Nonetheless, the emergence of the iconic period converted the reliefs into images of the Buddha in his human form and his incarnations were also portrayed. By the sixth century the multiplicity of the Buddha images enshrined in niches and mini stupas had grown tremendously."
