Princess from Ayodha became Queen Suro - Legend of Marriage

This is the Royal Tomb of Queen Suro. There is a legend about the marriage of King Suro and his Queen.

According to this legend, Queen Suro was originally an Indian princess. One day, her parents received a divine revelation that she was destined to marry King Suro, and so the princess travelled to Gaya and married the king in accordance with her parent’s instructions.

The power of destiny was strong enough to lure the princess to Gaya from faraway India. Although it is impossible to verify and is only a story that has been passed down through the generations, there is a clue that may support the legend at the entrance to the Royal Tomb of King Suro. At the entrance gate, there’s a drawing featuring a motif of two fish facing each other. These fish are representative symbols of Ayodhya in India, believed to be the hometown of the princess, and appear on public buildings, on police insignia, and even on taxi number plates in the area.

Similarities in the motifs of the two fish at the entrance to the tomb and in Ayodhya are cited as proof of ancient links between Gaya and India. It may be coincidental that King Suro’s tomb features the motif representative of Ayodhya, but it is surprising, nonetheless.
On the other hand, some historians insist that Queen Suro was not from India. According to the legend of her marriage, she brought with her many goods from China. This suggests that she may have migrated from China or have been a merchant visiting China.
There’s no way to conclusively determine the heritage of the Queen. We only know that she was a mysterious and courageous woman who travelled to Gaya to marry King Suro.
