<b> <c c="#a00149">Ayujjhā</c> </b> Ayojjhā<br>Two visits of the Buddha to this city are recorded in the Canon; on one occasion he preached the Phena Sutta <c c="#3b6bd3">SN.iii.140ff.</c> and on the other the Dārukkhandha Sutta, although the latter is said in some manuscripts to have taken place in Kosambī. <c c="#3b6bd3">SN.iv.179f.</c> In both these references the city is said to be on the Ganges; the town usually called Ayojjha (Ayodhyā) is, rather, on the Sarayū, adjacent to or an alternative name for Sāketa. However, in the Pali texts gaṅgā is sometimes used for any river, and that would seem to be the case here.<br> <br>Location: <iref href="https://www.google.com/maps/search/25.614286,83.671875">25.614286,83.671875</iref> (Precision: 1, Type: town)<br> </deftext>
