🧭 Key Details About Ram Janmabhoomi (Ayodhya)
- First-time pilgrims generally are guided to visit Ram Janmabhoomi early morning to avoid crowds; Hanuman Garhi temple, in particular, gets very busy during peak hours
- Homestays and retiring rooms near Ayodhya railway station are practical and budget-friendly options, often preferred for short stays by families
✅ Recommendations Based on Your Preferences
- Looking for budget pilgrimage? The Rajkot-origin Ram Janmabhoomi yatra (2025 model) was much more affordable and ideal if earlier departures match your window.
- Seeking a premium spiritual journey? The Shri Ramayana Yatra 2025 deluxe AC train offers an immersive Ramayana circuit with high comfort and wide coverage.
- Prefer a shorter Ayodhya-specific package? IRCTC’s devotional package line-up now includes a 4‑day Ayodhya Shri Ram Lalla Darshan tour (~₹8,850) that focuses on Ayodhya.
- Want a custom route including Ayodhya + surrounding temples? I can suggest train and road connections, lodging options, and schedule guidance.
