After a fulfilling day, return to your hotel for a restful overnight stay.

After breakfast at the hotel, leave for Ayodhya. Upon arrival check-in at the hotel, later head out to explore Ayodhya, the birthplace of Lord Shri Ram. Begin your sightseeing with a visit to the sacred Sarayu River, where thousands of pilgrims gather to take a holy dip. Next, visit the magnificent Shri Ram Temple, built on the birthplace of Lord Shri Ram, revered as the seventh avatar of the Hindu deity Lord Vishnu. Continue to other significant sites in Ayodhya, including Hanuman Garhi Mandir, Kanak Bhawan, Sita Ki Rasoi, Dashrath Mahal, Tulsi Smarak Bhavan, and Ram Katha Sangrahalay. After lunch, arrive at Kanchan Bhawan, where you’ll begin the Mokshadayani Heritage Walk to Nageshwar Dham. After the walk, enjoy a brief boat ride on the swift-flowing Sarayu River. In the evening, participate in the Aarti Ceremony, on the banks of Sacred Saryu River. Overnight stay at the hotel in Ayodhya.

Please Note: Due to traffic police restrictions, cars will be parked 1 km away from the Ayodhya Main Temple. Travellers will need to hire rickshaw or tuktuk to reach the temple and other sites. The cost of the local rickshaw or tuktuk ride is to be borne by the travellers.

After breakfast at the hotel, leave for Varanasi. Upon arrival, check in to your hotel and take some time to rest. Later in the evening, attend the Aarti ceremony on the banks of the River Ganges. Return to the hotel for an overnight stay.

Start your morning with a serene boat ride on the River Ganges, witnessing the sunrise and the spiritual activities along the ghats. Next, visit an Akhara to observe the traditional form of martial arts practiced there. Embark on a morning city tour of Varanasi, strolling through the sacred ghats and immersing yourself in the vibrant atmosphere. Visit the revered Kashi Vishwanath Temple, also known as the Golden Temple, and pay homage at the Bharat Mata Mandir, a unique temple dedicated to Mother India. Later, proceed to Sarnath, a significant Buddhist pilgrimage site. Explore the Dhamekha Stupa, where Lord Buddha delivered his first sermon, and visit the Archaeological Museum to view ancient artifacts. Continue to the Chaukhandi Stupa, an important historical monument. Return to the hotel in the evening for a restful overnight stay.
