The Ghats: The city features over 80 ghats. Dashashwamedh Ghat is famous for the nightly Ganga Aarti. Manikarnika Ghat is known as the "great cremation ground".
Culture and Craft: Famous for Banarasi Silk sarees and a rich tradition of classical music and literature.
Ayodhya (Saket)
Situated on the banks of the Saryu River, Ayodhya is one of the seven holiest cities (Sapta Puri) in Hinduism. It is a city of peace and devotion, deeply rooted in the values of the Ramayana.
Landmarks: The recently inaugurated Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir (January 2024) is the city's primary draw. Other vital sites include Hanuman Garhi, a hilltop temple dedicated to Lord Hanuman, and Kanak Bhawan, known as the "House of Gold".
The Saryu River: Pilgrims often take a holy dip at Ram Ki Paidi or attend the serene Saryu Aarti at the riverfront.
