In anticipation of the rising influx of global tourists ahead of the consecration ceremony of Lord Ram idol on January 22, the Ayodhya Development Authority (ADA) is actively working on the creation of modern tent cities, aligning with the vision of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
These tent cities offer luxury and semi-luxury suites designed for double occupancy, providing devotees with an opportunity to immerse themselves in the harmonious blend of mythological and modern Ayodhya amidst the serenity of nature.
As the consecration ceremony is gradually approaching, lakhs of devotees from all over the country and the world will flock to Ayodhya. In anticipation of this, tent cities have been developed at various places by Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust and Ayodhya Development Authority.
A tent city is being established on 20-acre land at Majha Guptar Ghat to accommodate thousands of devotees. Another tent city is being set up near Brahma Kund with 35 tents, besides one at Ram Katha Park with 30 tents.
Furthermore, a 25-acre tent city is being established at Bag Bijaisi by the Teerth Kshetra Trust, providing accommodation for thousands of people. In addition to these, tent cities are also being set up in Karsevak Puram and Sri Maniram Das Chhavni for the convenience of devotees.
These tent cities will offer guests a wide variety of cuisines, with the distinctive flavours of Awadhi and Banarasi being prominent. The tent city at Brahma Kund has been operational since December 1, serving devotees staying there with dishes such as millet dishes, makki ki roti, sarson ka saag, and seasonal vegetables.
People staying in the wooden deck-based tents will have all facilities, including comfortable chairs, sofas, dining lounges, personal vaults, room heaters, air-conditioning, high-speed internet and luxurious interiors. Here, people will also have the convenience of a bonfire, an open-air theatre for cultural events and a souvenir shop. These tents are durability-based and can be operated for up to 10 years after installation.
