Picture this! You're standing on the banks of the Saryu River, surrounded by as many as 24 lakh earthen lamps, illuminating the place with the beaming festive spirit. In addition to that, you get to see the light and sound show at Ram Ki Paidi, which will be held there for the first time on the eve of Diwali.

Deepotsav in Ayodhya at Ram Ki Paidi is the place to be if one wants to experience the festival of lights at its very best! And this year, the celebrations are shaping up to be even grander, making it the perfect option for a festive season getaway from Kanpur.

FREE entry for the mesmerizing two-hour light & sound show

The Light and Sound show, which will debut this November 11, will be continued at the Ram Ki Paidi for the next five years. And guess what? Entry to this two-hour show, which will follow the Saryu Aarti, will be absolutely FREE.

Furthermore, the Saryu Aarti will also be followed by the screenings of movies based on the Ramayana on the eve of Diwali. It is noteworthy that Diwali celebrations in Ayodhya have continued to get better every year. In 2022, a record-breaking 15 lakh diyas were lit during the celebrations, and the numbers are expected to reach 24 lakh this Diwali.

A 30-foot wide and 200-foot long curtain will be placed for the screenings and shows at Ayodhya's Deepotsav. Preparations and facilities aside, the Diwali vibe at Ayodhya should be on the bucket list of everyone who enjoys community celebrations!
