Ram Mandir<\/strong><\/h3>\nEver since the temple was consecrated last year, Ayodhya has become a hub of tourists with numbers further inflated due to Maha Kumbh, taking place only 160 kilometres away in Prayagraj. According to the state tourism department, 32.98 crore tourists visited Uttar Pradesh in the first six months of 2024 with Ayodhya and Varanasi accounting for the majority of numbers.<\/p>\n
As per the Uttar Pradesh government, a new record was set when over one crore devotees visited the holy city between January 26 and February 3 (Basant Panchami).<\/p>\n
Notably, the Ram Mandir was built after a long legal battle which culminated in 2019. According to the Supreme Court verdict, the land upon which the Babri Masjid once stood, was allotted to the Hindu side. Meanwhile, the Muslims were granted a piece of land to build a mosque, far away from the contentious spot.<\/p>\n
