Golden Triangle – Varanasi, Ayodhya & Prayagraj Tour Package

Introduction

India’s Golden Triangle is renowned for its rich cultural and spiritual heritage, and a Golden Triangle Tour including Varanasi, Ayodhya, and Prayagraj is an unforgettable experience. These three cities, each with its deep historical and spiritual significance, are often considered the heart of India's religious life. This special tour package allows travelers to explore the divine temples, the sacred rivers, and the mesmerizing rituals that shape these cities. Whether you are a history enthusiast or someone seeking spiritual peace, this tour offers something for everyone.


Why Choose the Golden Triangle Tour: Varanasi, Ayodhya & Prayagraj?

  1. Varanasi – The Spiritual Capital of India
    The first stop of the Golden Triangle Tour is Varanasi, also known as Kashi, one of the oldest cities in the world. Located on the banks of the holy Ganges River, Varanasi is a city where spirituality, history, and culture merge. Some of the key highlights of Varanasi include:

    • Kashi Vishwanath Temple: Dedicated to Lord Shiva, it is one of the most sacred temples in India.
    • Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh Ghat: Witness the mesmerizing evening prayers at the ghats where thousands of lamps light up the holy river.
    • Manikarnika Ghat: The main cremation ghat of the city, where the cycle of life and death plays out.

    In Varanasi, you will also experience the unique boat rides on the Ganges, visit ancient temples, and get a glimpse into the everyday life of the faithful.

  2. Ayodhya – Birthplace of Lord Rama
    Ayodhya, the second city in the Golden Triangle Tour, is known for its religious importance, particularly as the birthplace of Lord Rama, one of the most revered figures in Hindu mythology. Key places to visit in Ayodhya include:

    • Ram Janmabhoomi Temple: The most famous landmark in Ayodhya, marking the exact spot where Lord Rama was born.
    • Hanuman Garhi Temple: A popular site dedicated to Lord Hanuman, believed to be the guardian deity of Ayodhya.
    • Kanak Bhawan Temple: An ancient temple dedicated to Lord Rama and Goddess Sita.

    In addition to the temples, Ayodhya offers a peaceful ambiance, ideal for reflection and understanding the depth of Hindu mythology.

  3. Prayagraj – Confluence of the Sacred Rivers
    The final stop in the Golden Triangle Tour is Prayagraj, also known as Allahabad, where the holy rivers Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati converge at the Triveni Sangam. This spiritual city is famous for its Kumbh Mela (the largest religious gathering in the world) and the many sacred temples. Must-visit places include:

    • Triveni Sangam: The sacred confluence of three rivers, where pilgrims gather to bathe in the holy waters.
    • Allahabad Fort: A magnificent fort built by Emperor Akbar on the banks of the Yamuna River.
    • Kumbh Mela: If your visit coincides with this grand festival (held every 12 years), you can witness the largest religious gathering in the world.
