What you can expect

Begin your spiritual journey through one of India's most sacred cities with convenient pickup from Ayodhya Airport, your hotel, or the railway station.

Start at the magnificent Ram Janmabhoomi Temple, the legendary birthplace of Lord Rama—a revered deity in Hindu mythology and the hero of the ancient epic, the Ramayana. Skip the long queues with fast-track access to witness this holy site where millions of pilgrims come to pay their respects.

Continue to Hanuman Garhi Temple, perched on a hilltop and dedicated to Hanuman, the devoted monkey god and loyal companion of Lord Rama. Climb the 76 steps to this fortress-like shrine and admire its striking red sandstone architecture while learning about its spiritual significance.

Visit the ornate Kanak Bhawan temple, known as the “Golden Palace,” gifted to Sita (Rama's wife) by her mother-in-law. Marvel at the gold-plated idols and intricate paintings depicting scenes from Hindu mythology.

Explore Dashrath Mahal, the ancient palace ruins of King Dashrath, Lord Rama's father, and discover the royal history of this legendary dynasty. Then, see Suraj Kund, a sacred swimming tank associated with the Sun God and Rama's coronation ceremony.

As evening falls, experience the mesmerising Saryu River Aarti ceremony at Saryu Ghat. Watch hundreds of oil lamps flicker along the riverbank as priests perform ancient fire rituals accompanied by devotional chants and bells—a deeply moving spiritual spectacle that captures the essence of Hindu tradition.
