Completing the Buddha Tour
Package India is a glimpse on the pilgrim way of life presented
through a boat cruise at the River Ganges and would culminate
with a drive at Bodhgaya. It is where the Bhodi can be found,
apparently the tree where Gautama Buddha achieved enlightenment,
and is the most sacred place for Buddhists.
One of the last stops for North India Historical Tours is Lucknow-Sankassia, the place where Buddha descended after giving sermons to his mother in heaven, along with Brahma and Devraj Indra. A temple with the Buddha's statue stands at the said spot.
