Sujata KutiSujatha Temple is dedicated to a humble tribal woman named Sujatha, who offered pudding to Gautam Buddha.

Later Gautama Buddha realized that one cannot attain enlightenment by Immoderation, after that he continued his journey and reached Bodh Gaya where he finally attained enlightenment. So, a small temple is built here to remark that historical incident.
