If I recall correctly, what I remember most about the Temple of Dawn was the steep steps ... as if they were meant for giants.

One of my favorite Buddhist pilgrimage sights is Sarnath, which is where Buddha gave his first sermon in Deer Park and was NOT commercialized when I visited.

(I never visited Bodh Gayh though after hearing how commercialized it had become even though it had been on my travel list at one time.)
