Tips

To shorten the trip, combine Prayagraj and Varanasi on a single day (early train) and skip one of the nights in Deoghar, staying only one night at Baidyanath; this saves both time and accommodation costs. To extend, add a full day in Varanasi for a deeper exploration of the ghats and the Sarnath archaeological site, or spend an extra night in Ayodhya for additional temple rituals and a river sunrise experience.
