Ayodhya is situated on the
banks of the Saryu river in the state of Uttar Pradesh in India. The Brahamanda
Purana dentifies Ayodhya as the premier amongst the six holy cities for
the Hindus. The other five are Mathura, Haridwar, Kashi, Kanchi, and Ujjain.
These holy cities are places of pilgrimage from where the Hindus seek inspiration
of their great civilisation and culture. Visits to these places also assure
them of Moksha or Nirvana. |
