A city built on faith and story

Ayodhya is one of Hinduism's seven most sacred cities, named in the Ramayana as the birthplace of Lord Rama. Every lane leads toward a shrine, every evening ends at the river, and every stone seems to carry a verse of the epic with it.

We help pilgrims and travellers plan the practical side of that journey — a package that covers the right temples in the right order, a hotel close enough to walk to darshan, and a driver who already knows the routes.

Places to visit

Four gateways into Ayodhya

Pilgrims traditionally move through the city gate by gate. These are the four stops no visit should skip.

Ram Mandir, Ayodhya
First Gateway

Ram Mandir

The grand temple complex marking Lord Rama's birthplace, consecrated in January 2024. Carved sandstone spires rise above the old city, with the sanctum housing the infant form of Rama.

Open daily · dawn to dusk
Hanuman Garhi temple complex, Ayodhya
Second Gateway

Hanuman Garhi

A fortress-like temple on a hilltop, reached by 76 stone steps. Tradition holds that every pilgrim seeks Hanuman's blessing here before visiting Rama's birthplace.

76 steps to the sanctum
Kanak Bhawan, Ayodhya
Third Gateway

Kanak Bhawan

The "Golden Palace," said to be a wedding gift to Sita, holds gold-crowned idols of Rama and Sita under a silver-domed sanctum — one of the city's most ornate interiors.

Best seen at golden hour
Saryu River ghats at night, Ayodhya
Fourth Gateway

Ram ki Paidi

A wide stretch of stone ghats along the Saryu river, where pilgrims bathe at dawn and thousands of lamps float at dusk. The most atmospheric spot in the city after sunset.

Evening aarti · 7–7:45pm
A story worth knowing

Ram & Hanuman — a bond beyond duty

When Rama's beloved Sita was taken from their forest home, it was a band of vanaras — forest-dwelling folk — who came to his aid. Among them stood Hanuman, son of the wind god, whose strength was matched only by his humility.

Hanuman crossed the ocean in a single leap to find Sita in Lanka, then returned to lead the search party back with hope. He fought alongside Rama's army, carried word between them at the most desperate hours, and once famously flew to the Himalayas to bring back an entire mountain of healing herbs when nothing less would save Rama's brother, Lakshman.

But what pilgrims remember most is not the strength — it's the devotion. Asked once to prove his love for Rama, Hanuman is said to have torn open his own chest to reveal Rama and Sita seated within his heart. It's why, even today, no visit to Ram Janmabhoomi is considered complete without first stopping at Hanuman Garhi — devotees believe Hanuman still stands guard at the city's gate, watching over the temple of the one he loved before all else.

The river comes alive with light

Each evening, priests perform aarti on the ghats of the Saryu as hundreds of small diyas drift on the water. Ask us about hotels within walking distance so you can make it there on foot.

Where to stay

Hotels near Ram Mandir

A comfortable, budget-friendly stay close to the railway station and bus stand — ask us about upgrading to a 3★ or 4★ hotel for a package.

Property photography goes here — replace the placeholder panels above with real photos of each hotel's rooms, lobby and exterior once available. Generic stock or city photos in place of a hotel's own images tend to undercut trust at the booking step.
