Best known as the birth place of the Hindu deity Rama, Ayodhya became the top tourist destination of Uttar Pradesh with 110 million visitors in the first half of 2024, surpassing Varanasi. It was nice to be among the visitors in the second half of the year.
We couldn’t take cameras into the Ram Mandir. So, unfortunately, no pictures from me. The Mandir is a partially constructed, or almost complete, Hindu temple. Many Hindus believe that it is located at the site of Ram Janmabhoomi, the birthplace of Lord Rama. The visit was a highlight among highlights. Do visit if you can.
The Shri Hanuman Garhi Mandir is one of the most important temples in Ayodhya along with the Ram Mandir.
