Mahabodhi temple at Bodh Gaya in Bihar province of India, reopened Monday evening. This world famous UNESCO heritage site was rocked by series of explosions on Sunday early morning, which left three people injured. Visitors were allowed in the temple after thorough search by security agencies. Thousands of people thronged the temple immediately after the gate was opened.

Blasts did some damage to India’s one of the most visited tourist sites. Reasons are still being investigated, and it is still too early to say that who was behind these blasts.

Few more pictures from the explosion and its aftermath-
