With just around 50 days to go for the long-awaited consecration ceremony of the idol of Lord Ram at the sanctum sanctorum of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya on January 22, 2024, hotel rooms in the temple town are almost fully booked despite being priced seven to 10 times more than the normal rates.
It is estimated that there are roughly 10,000 rooms in Ayodhya, which includes accommodation facilities in around 150 economy hotels, 30 dharamshalas (rest houses), and 20 luxury hotels.
Apart from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who will be the chief guest at the event, the temple trust plans to invite eminent personalities and over 25,000 Hindu religious leaders of 136 ‘Sanatan’ traditions for the ceremony.
