Vishnupad Temple

Vishnupad Temple is located on the bank of river Falgu in Gaya, a holy city of Bihar in India. It has footprint of Vishnu, a god in Hindu pantheon, incised into a block of basalt. People believe that Lord Vishnu killed Gayasur here by placing his foot on Gayasur's chest.

The old temple of Vishnupad was later renovated by the queen of Indore, Devi Ahilyabai in eighteenth century. While Hindus claim that footprints in Vishunpad temple are of Lord Vishnu, Buddhists consider them the footprints of Lord Buddha.
