About Book Ayodhya Kashi
Namaste! I am Shailesh Kumar, the creator and publisher of Book Ayodhya Kashi.
Book Ayodhya Kashi is an independent travel and pilgrimage information website created to help people plan and understand their journeys to Ayodhya and Kashi (Varanasi) with practical, clear, and useful information.
The purpose of this website is simple: to make pilgrimage planning easier by bringing together useful information about temples, ghats, darshan, Puja, travel, trains, local transport, hotels, important places, rituals, and other practical aspects of visiting Ayodhya and Kashi.
My Connection with Ayodhya and Kashi
My roots are connected with Amethi, in the wider region of eastern Uttar Pradesh and close to the cultural and spiritual landscape associated with Ayodhya and Kashi.
Although I have spent around 25 years in Mumbai, my connection with my home region and its traditions has remained important to me.
I have travelled to Ayodhya and Kashi and have a personal interest in understanding these places beyond the usual tourist information. This connection was one of the reasons I started Book Ayodhya Kashi.
Why I Created Book Ayodhya Kashi
Planning a pilgrimage can involve many practical questions:
- Which temple or ghat should I visit?
- How can I reach a particular place?
- Which railway station or transport option is useful?
- What should I know before visiting a temple?
- Where can I find practical information about hotels and local facilities?
- What rituals or Puja-related information should a devotee know?
- What should first-time visitors, families, senior citizens, or travellers from outside India keep in mind?
Book Ayodhya Kashi was created to answer these kinds of questions in a simple and practical way.
My aim is not only to provide general descriptions of famous places, but also to bring together information that can help a visitor understand the practical side of a pilgrimage.
Experience, Local Connection and Research
The content on Book Ayodhya Kashi combines my personal connection with the region, travel experience, and ongoing research.
For travel-related information, I research available routes, railway and transport information, visitor facilities, locations, timings, and other practical details from relevant sources where possible.
For information that can change over time, such as transport schedules, opening hours, fees, routes, or availability, visitors should also verify the latest information with the relevant official authority or service provider before travelling.
This approach helps us create content that is locally informed, research-based, practical, and useful for real travellers.

Our goal is to combine faith, local connection, research, and practical travel information in one place.
Information Accuracy
We make reasonable efforts to research and present information accurately. However, some travel, transport, temple, hotel, event, timing, fee, and service information can change.
Where information is time-sensitive, visitors should verify the latest details with the relevant official authority, railway service, transport provider, hotel, temple authority, or service provider before making travel decisions.

Puja and Third-Party Services
Book Ayodhya Kashi may provide information or contact details that help devotees connect directly with a concerned Pandit Ji or other service provider.
For Puja enquiries, devotees communicate directly with the concerned Pandit Ji regarding Puja details, charges, timing, and payment.

If a devotee contacts us about an issue after making an arrangement with a Pandit Ji, we may provide reasonable assistance or communicate with the concerned Pandit Ji where appropriate. However, the actual Puja arrangement and payment are between the devotee and the concerned service provider.
