The Panchavati Trail

Walking where the Ramayana happened

Five stops along the old riverside town, the bathing kund where Rama offered water to his father, a Shiva temple with no bull at its door, a black stone Rama who watched a nation change, and the cave where Sita hid. About an hour on foot, all of it flat.
