THE RAMAYANA GATEWAY @ AYODHYA : UTTAR PRADESH

A TRANSIT & COMMERCIAL HUB

The Ayodhya Dham Bus Terminal project is designed as an iconic landmark, harmoniously blending functionality with the cultural and spiritual significance of the city. The design strategically utilizes the site’s natural levels to separate the bus terminal from the private commercial and mixed-use areas, ensuring smooth operational flow. Two distinct entrance nodes cater to different user groups: one at the existing bus terminal level for bus traffic and the other at a higher level along Bund Road, exclusively serving visitors to the mixed-use amenities such as the hotel, cinema, and other recreational facilities.

The building form maximizes shopfront visibility along the peripheral roads, creating a vibrant street presence. The project’s massing is strategically weighted towards the south, aligning with Vastu principles and offering climatic advantages by optimizing solar orientation and natural ventilation. The design integrates four open-to-sky courtyards, each themed around one of the four brothers from the Ramayana, adding a spiritual and cultural dimension to the space. At the grand entrance plaza, a central light and fountain show, featuring a majestic statue of Shri Ram, sets the tone for the project’s grandeur.

The development is a mixed-use marvel with retail spaces occupying the lower ground to the second floor, while the third floor houses a cinema, children’s recreational zones, and the hotel lobby. Banqueting facilities for weddings and functions are placed on the upper floors, directly connected to the luxurious 5-star hotel rooms and suites, which are designed to offer breathtaking views of the Sarayu River and the ancient city of Ayodhya. The rooftop club and executive lounge further enhance the guest experience, offering picturesque views of the city skyline.

The façade highlights classical elements such as rhythm, scale, proportion, symmetry, and texture, creating a symphony that resonates with both modern functionality and traditional aesthetics. The ornamentation is subtly refined, allowing the façade’s character to emerge through a thoughtful interplay of architectural details.

As Ayodhya’s tallest mixed-use project, this iconic development becomes a regional symbol, merging contemporary amenities with a classical architectural style.
