Overview
The Ramayan Circuit, weaving through Varanasi, Ayodhya, Prayagraj, and Chitrakoot, is a sacred pilgrimage that echoes the divine footsteps of Lord Rama. It begins in Varanasi, the eternal city where spiritual wisdom flows through the Ganga and the verses of Ramcharitmanas were born in Tulsi Manas Mandir. In Ayodhya, the birthplace of Rama, devotion comes alive at Ram Janmabhoomi, Hanuman Garhi, and the ghats of the Saryu River. Prayagraj, the confluence of Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati, holds the sage Bharadwaj’s ashram, where Rama sought counsel before exile. Finally, Chitrakoot, nestled in forested serenity, witnessed Rama’s years of vanvaas, Bharat’s emotional reunion, and divine episodes at Kamadgiri, Ramghat, and Hanuman Dhara. Together, these timeless cities form a spiritual arc that brings the Ramayana to life, offering pilgrims a journey of faith, reflection, and divine connection.
