Ayodhya's principal Ram temple, built at the site revered in Hindu tradition as the birthplace of Lord Ram and now the spiritual centre of the city's pilgrimage circuit.
An ornate Ram-Sita temple in Ramkot, Kanak Bhawan is cherished for its graceful courtyard, richly adorned idols and palace-like devotional atmosphere.
A revered hilltop Hanuman temple in central Ayodhya, known for its staircase approach, Bal Hanuman shrine and traditional role as guardian of the sacred city.
Ayodhya's iconic Sarayu riverfront, Ram ki Paidi is a long sequence of ghats celebrated for ritual bathing, evening lights and the spectacular Deepotsav atmosphere.
A grand eighteenth-century mausoleum in historic Faizabad, Bahu Begum ka Maqbara is one of the finest reminders of the Nawabi heritage of Awadh.
A colourful Ramayana-linked palace shrine in old Ayodhya, traditionally associated with King Dashrath and the royal household of Lord Ram.
A historic Shiva temple at Ram ki Paidi, Nageshwarnath is tied in local tradition to Kush, son of Lord Ram, and is especially vibrant during Mahashivratri.
A rare Ram temple near the Sarayu, Treta ke Thakur is traditionally linked with Lord Ram's Ashwamedha Yagya and is especially notable for its very limited annual public opening.
