Are you planning a visit to the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya? If yes, then you must know that the daily schedule and timings for darshan, aarti, bhog and rest at the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple are all set to change from November 1, 2026, for the winter season. Here’s everything you need to know about the new timings so that you can plan your visit accordingly.
Darshan Timings At Ayodhya Ram Mandir Darshan To Change
The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust changes the schedule and darshan timings at Ayodhya’s Ram Mandir to match the winter season. As winter arrives, days become shorter. Since the main deity, Ram Lalla, is worshipped as a child at this temple, the Trust adjusts the schedule so that the deity can sleep and rest properly.
According to News18, the temple will now open at 4 am and close at 10 pm. At present, the temple doors open for devotees at 3:45 am and close at 10:30 pm. During winter, from November 1, the Mangala Aarti will be conducted from 4:30 am to 4:40 am. The doors will then remain closed until 6:30 am for abhishek, shringar, dhoop-deep and naivedya.
