Ayodhya is perhaps the most noted place in northern India where parikramas are undertaken by Hindu pilgrims.These circumbulations of important religious places are of varying durations, shortest being the 'Antargrahi Parikrama' which has to be completed within a day. After taking a dip in the river Saryu, the devotee commences the Parikrama from the Nageshwarnath temple and passes through Rama Ghat, Sita Kund , Mani Parvat and Brahma Kund, finally terminating at Kanak Bhavan.

Then there is the Panchkoshi Parikarma, circuit of 16 Km., which touches Chakratirtha, Naya Ghat, Ram Ghat, Holkar-Ka-Pura, Dashrath Kund, Jogiana, Ranopali, Jalpanala and Mahatabagh. On the way the people pay homage to the deities in the shrines which are situated en route.

The ' Chaturdashkoshi Parikarma' constitutes a circular journey of 45 km., made once a year on the occasion of Akshainavami, which is completed within 24 hours.
