Ayodhaya with Varanasi & Prayagraj 7 Days

Situated 3–4 hours from Delhi, Agra is the city that hosts the wonderful Taj Mahal. Constructed from white marble, this mausoleum was built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan and has gained worldwide reputation for its extraordinary beauty and minute detailing. Another massive Agra Fort represents the glorious monuments of Agra, allowing insight into the Mughal fortifications and royal life. There is a beautiful view across the Yamuna River from Mehtab Bagh Gardens to one of the finest views of the Taj Mahal.

The drive from Agra to Ayodhya takes five hours; this place has deep religious importance as the mythic birthplace of Lord Rama. Ancient temples are not left out in Ayodhya; it is said that the complex of Ram Janmabhoomi is situated here. Further, the presence of the serene Sarayu River enhances the significance here, according to Hindu religious perceptions.

A 3 hour drive from Ayodhya will bring you to Prayagraj, earlier known as Allahabad. This town is an area where Ganga, Yamuna, and mythological Saraswati all come together as the Sangam. Once every 12 years, this city is the venue for Kumbh Mela where tens of thousands of people gather and transform Prayagraj into the largest pilgrimage destination. Other spots within the city limits are the Allahabad Fort and Anand Bhavan, which happened to be the home of one-time Nehru, Jawaharlal.

A four-hour drive from eastern Uttar Pradesh brings one to Varanasi, one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. Then there is Varanasi—synonymous with its many ghats along the Ganges, offering the most surreal spiritual experience with its everyday rituals and ceremonies. While, on the other hand, there are so many temples in Tripura, through whose small lanes one gets entry into the religious and cultural center of India.

It’s perfect for a flexible and immersive travel itinerary that takes one on an experiential journey through the iconic cities, each one uniquely contributing to the rich tapestry of heritage and spirituality that is Northern India.
