Itinerary

1. Shri Ram Janma Bhoomi

   Post breakfast at the hotel, step into the divine realm of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi, the birthplace of Lord Ram. This is not just a temple—it is the soul of India. Centuries of devotion, sacrifice, and longing are carved into every inch of this sacred space. Marvel at the grand temple structure, designed in the Nagara style, made from pink sandstone and carved by artisans with ancient techniques. The sanctum resonates with deep chants, and you’ll feel your heart bowing in surrender. According to the Ramayana, this is the very spot where Vishnu took human form to uphold dharma. The energy here is palpable—it's a calling, not just a visit.

2. Hanuman Garhi Mandir

   Next is Hanuman Garhi Mandir. This hilltop temple dedicated to Lord Hanuman, the most devoted follower of Shri Ram, this point offers a panoramic view of Ayodhya. Climb the 76 steps—each one a symbolic rise in faith—and reach the temple that houses a powerful murti of Bal Hanuman resting on Mata Anjani’s lap. It is believed that no darshan of Ram Janmabhoomi is complete without first seeking blessings from Hanuman Garhi.

3. Kanak Bhavan Temple

   "Shri Ram aur Mata Sita ka prem, is Bhawan ki deewaron mein basa hai." A palace gifted to Sita by Queen Kaikeyi after her marriage to Ram, Kanak Bhawan is known as the “Golden Palace.” Inside, you’ll see exquisitely adorned idols of Ram and Sita, glowing with divine grace. The intricate mirror work, delicate frescoes, and golden crowns remind us of Treta Yug, when Ram Rajya meant not just governance, but grace, love, and justice. Here, you don’t just see idols—you witness the divine couple’s eternal union.

It is said that from Guptar Ghat, he ascended to Vaikuntha — a divine departure witnessed only by the faithful. The ghat is peaceful, powerful. Even the silence here chants "Ram Ram". As you sit by the edge, breathe, you will be standing at the doorway between the mortal and the eternal.
