Frequently Asked & Question
The best time to visit Ayodhya is during the winter months, from October to March. The weather during this period is pleasant and cool, making it comfortable for temple visits and exploring the city. Summers (April to June) can be very hot, and the monsoon season (July to September) brings heavy rainfall. Major festivals like Ram Navami and Diwali see huge crowds but offer a unique experience.
Ayodhya is well-connected by road and rail. The nearest major railway stations are Ayodhya Junction (AY) and Faizabad Junction (FD). Ayodhya also has its own airport, Maharishi Valmiki International Airport, Ayodhya Dham (AYJ), with growing connectivity. Alternatively, Lucknow's Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport (LKO) is about 135 km away and offers more flight options, from where you can hire a taxi or take a bus to Ayodhya.
Darshan timings for the Ram Mandir can vary, especially during festivals or special occasions. Generally, temples in Ayodhya open early in the morning and close in the evening, with afternoon breaks. It's best to check the official Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra website or inquire locally for the most current timings before your visit. Expect queues, particularly during peak seasons and weekends.
As Ayodhya is a major pilgrimage site, dressing modestly is highly recommended when visiting temples. Both men and women should wear clothes that cover shoulders, arms, and knees. Avoid shorts, sleeveless tops, and overly revealing outfits. Removing footwear before entering temple premises is mandatory. Some temples might require covering your head, although it's less common than in Sikh Gurdwaras.
Rules regarding photography and videography vary from temple to temple. Inside the main sanctum sanctorum (garbhagriha) of most temples, including the Ram Mandir, photography is usually strictly prohibited. In outer courtyards or premises, it might be allowed, sometimes with a fee for cameras. It's best to check for specific signage or ask temple authorities before taking pictures or videos.
