The Ramnami Gamcha is a ubiquitous sight in Ayodhya. It is a light cotton towel or scarf, usually dyed in saffron, yellow, or red, and block-printed with the name "Shri Ram" or "Jai Shri Ram" in repeated patterns (Namavali).
It is used by devotees to cover their heads in the sun, wrap around their necks during prayer, or sit on during meditation. The printing is done by local dyers using wooden blocks.
It serves as a badge of identity for the pilgrim. It is functional, spiritual, and very affordable.
A series of ghats on the riverfront, famous for its spectacular renovation and the Guinness World Record-breaking Deepotsav festivals.
The sacred site where Lord Rama is believed to have taken 'Jal Samadhi' (left his physical body) to return to his celestial abode, Vaikuntha.
The bustling entry point to the Saryu riverfront, featuring beautiful parks and the statue of Lord Rama. A hub for boat rides and evening leisure.
