Why Ayodhya is important
Ayodhya stands on the Sarayu and is revered as the birthplace of Shri Rama. The district administration describes ancient Ayodhya—also known as Saket—as the capital of Kosala and a central setting of the Ramayana. Its importance is spiritual, literary, historical and civic, extending beyond any single monument.
