Chaurasi Kos Yatra
The Chaurasi Kos Yatra, also known as the Chaurasi Kosi Parikrama, is a significant pilgrimage journey in Hinduism. It is traditionally undertaken in the holy city of Ayodhya, located in the state of Uttar Pradesh, India. The term "Chaurasi Kos" refers to a distance of 84 kos, where one kos equals approximately 3.5 kilometers, making the entire pilgrimage route approximately 294 kilometers long.
The Chaurasi Kos Yatra holds immense religious importance in Hindu mythology. Devotees believe that Lord Rama, along with his brothers, Laxman, Bharata, and Shatrughna, undertook this pilgrimage after returning to Ayodhya following his victory over Ravana, the demon king of Lanka.
