Tips

If you have extra time, consider adding a half‑day visit to Sarnath near Varanasi to explore the ancient Buddhist sites, or extend your stay in Ayodhya to attend the evening Aarti at the Sarayu Riverbank. To shorten the trip, you can skip the Anand Bhavan museum and combine the Varanasi and Prayagraj visits into a single day by taking an early morning flight to Prayagraj and returning to Delhi directly from there.
