The belief is that after spending the day in Orchha, Lord Rama returns to Ayodhya at night. The Shri Ram Raja Sarkar temple in Orchha is believed to be the true abode of Lord Rama, and his presence in the town is celebrated annually with the Pushya Nakshatra festival. Orchha is accessible from Jhansi, which is 17 kilometers away and the closest major railway station. The journey from Jhansi to Orchha takes about 30 minutes by road. Orchha can also be reached from Gwalior, which is 120 kilometers away and takes around 2.5 hours by road.

Orchha, Tikamgarh district mein padne wala, Bundelkhand ka 'Aydhoya' mana jata hai, kyunki yahaan Bhagwan Shri Ram raja ke roop mein virajmaan hain. Ayodhya aur Orchha ka sambandh 600 saal purana hai, aur kahte hain ki Bhagwan Ram Ayodhya se chal kar ke swयं rani ki god mein aaye the. Bundelkhand...

mein mannyata hai ki din bhar Orchha mein rahne ke baad shayan ke liye Bhagwan Ram Ayodhya chale jate hain. Shri Ram Raja Sarkar mandir Orchha mein Bhagwan Shri Ram ka asli niwas mana jata hai, aur unki upasthiti ko har saal Pushya Nakshatra utsav ke saath manaya jata hai. Orchha, Jhansi se pahunch sakta hai, jo 17 kilometre dur hai aur sabse karib bada railway station hai. Jhansi se Orchha tak ka safar road se 30 minute mein poora hota hai. Orchha, Gwalior se bhi pahunch sakta hai, jo 120 kilometre dur hai aur lagabhag 2.5 ghante mein poora hota hai.
