Company information

Hello! My name is Islam Ansari. I was born in Sujata village (where our homestay is located) and have also lived in Patna and Kolkata, where I received my education and ran my own leather company. After my wife, Guri, and I married, we decided to move back to Sujata village to settle down and raise our family. We have now lived in Sujata village for over 20 years. During this time, we have adopted 18 orphans which we raise alongside our four biological children. As a native of Sujata village with lots of relatives nearby, I am very familiar with the Bodh Gaya area and well-connected in the community. I can help you prioritize local sights that meet your interests. I can also help arrange reasonably-priced transportation to nearby sights if you’d like.

Property information

Islam’s home is located in Sujata, Bihar, India. Bodhgaya and Sujata is one of the four sacred places of Buddhism. Bakraur (Sujata village) is the place where Sujata lived, the woman that fed Gautama Siddhartha with milk and rice shortly before he attained illumination. A stupa dedicated to Sujata has been erected in our village. .
