The Ram Mandir in Ayodhya is a testament to India’s unwavering faith in Lord Ram and its rich cultural heritage. The temple is not just a place of worship but also a symbol of India’s unity in diversity.
The temple’s architecture is a blend of traditional design and cutting-edge technology. Spread over nearly 3 hectares (7.4 acres), the temple is made with pink sandstone and adorned with intricate carvings. It has 46 doors, 42 of which are layered with gold. The temple is crafted without the use of iron, steel, or cement.
The temple’s grand inauguration was held on January 22, 2024, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi as the chief guest. The temple city of Ayodhya has been decked up for the much-awaited arrival of Lord Ram. A seven-day ritual is underway which will end with the inauguration of the Ram Lalla Idol next week.
The Ram Mandir is not just a temple, but a symbol of India’s rich cultural heritage and a beacon of hope for the future. It is a place where millions of devotees will come to seek solace, peace, and blessings.
