Indian homes have begun with festive preparations for Navratri celebrations. Ram Navami is set to be celebrated on April 17th after the auspicious nine-day period of Navratri. There is an added charm to this year’s celebrations as the recently inaugurated Ram Mandir in Ayodhya will observe its first Ram Navami event. If you’re planning a trip to Ayodhya, then consider visiting these temples alongside Ram Mandir for a delightful experience. 

Shri Hanuman Garhi Mandir

Shri Hanuman Garhi Mandir is a famous attraction in Ayodhya. It is considered one of the renowned temples in the city. According to some traditions, visiting the Hanuman Garhi Temple is considered essential before paying homage to Lord Shri Ram in Ram Mandir. Devotees believe that blessings of Lord Hanuman are necessary for darshan of Lord Rama. Therefore, if you’re visiting Ayodhya during his auspicious occasion, then make sure to visit Hanuman Garhi first. 

 

Mani Parvat Temple

When visiting Ayodhya, make sure to pay a visit to Mani Parvat Temple. According to a legend, a portion of the Sanjivani herb carried by Hanuman fell at this spot in Ayodhya. This location came to be known as Mani Parvat. This site holds great significance due to its mythological importance. Moreover, the location of this temple also provides panoramic views of the entire city. 

Shri Nageshwar Nath Mandir Ayodhya Trust

Nageshwar Nath Mandir in Ayodhya is another revered site among devotees. It is devoted to the worshipping of Lord Shiva. Some legends suggest that this temple was constructed by Kush, the younger son of Lord Rama and Sita. Legend has it that during a bath in the Saryu River, Kush accidentally lost his armlet, which was later found by a Nagkanya. This encounter prompted him to build the temple. 

Therefore, is you are planning a visit to Ayodhya during the Navratri celebrations, then make sure to visit these three temples as well for a divine religious experience.
