ABOUT THE
Attraction
Around 7 km from Bodhgaya, on a hill, is located Pragbodhi (prior to enlightenment). It is believed that the Buddha spent seven years living an austere life in a cave in this hill. Now known as Dungeshwari cave, it has a small temple. A short hike to the top of the hill offers stunning views of the land around and the ruins of a few stupas. Prag Bodhi is generally a three-four hour trip from Bodh Gaya.
