What are the four holy places of Buddhism?

Buddhism came into being in India, but declined in India, leaving four Buddhist holy places: Lumbini, Bodhgaya, Liugu 'an and Naga. Lumbini is a famous Buddhist holy land and the birthplace of Sakyamuni, the founder of Buddhism. Located in Lu Dehai Pan County, Lumbini District, western Nepal. Bodhgaya, also known as Bodhi Dojo and Buddha Gaya, is a holy place of Indian Buddhism, located on the Pargu River, a tributary of Ganges River in northeast India. According to legend, it is the place where Buddha Sakyamuni became a Buddha, so this small town has become a sacred place in the minds of Buddhist believers. After Bodhgaya realized Taoism, Sakyamuni first came to Liudao Temple to give lectures and received five disciples. Kushner Gar is a Buddhist holy place in India, where the Buddha Sakyamuni died, near the border between India and Nepal. There are also four Buddhist holy places (four famous Buddhist mountains) in China, namely: Manjusri Bodhisattva Dojo-Wutai Mountain in Shanxi, Guanyin Bodhisattva Dojo-Putuo Mountain in Zhejiang, Emei Mountain in Sichuan and Jiuhua Mountain in Anhui. With the introduction of Buddhism, the four famous mountains began to build temples in the Han Dynasty and continued until the late Qing Dynasty.
