Shrawan Starting from 18/19th July.
The usual timings for Baba darshan is 4:00 AM to 4:00 PM and again 6:00PM to 9:00PM. But in crowded day (like each SOMWARI (Monday) this could be quite early and delayed for late night)
To the first time comer to Deoghar, just want to convey a message, don’t worry come in a free mood. The mela is controlled by PRASHASHAN people ( Govtt. Employees ). Nothing to worry. Lots of hotel for accommodation ( varying to all rates may be 100/- to 700/- ), nothing to worry about food – as so many restaurants are here. Apart from the facility provided by Deoghar Govtt. there will be huge number of SANSKRITIK SANSTHA/SANGS/Political Parties which are gonna help you in 24×7 including the medication if require.
One advice to the parents of small kids, just keep a complete adress chit in their pockets, so that if they are lost in crowd, the concern authorities (Yes prashashan cares a lot for such events and are ready to make things perfect in your ways) can announce/handover the kid to you using the address slip in their pocket.
No problem of drinking water, whether will be bit rainy, almost no cold, bit sunny.
There are very less chances of misguiding from other people upon asking for few queries like where to stay, how to go to X place etc.. but still advice able to ask the traffic people, use sign boards across the roads.
Shivganga is the holy lake/pond for you bath and then go to temple for pooja.
Yes please do carry a torch light with you, although there will be electricity in 24×7 manner.
As a prasad you may take Chuda, Elaichidana, Peda, and mala(Baddhi).
Deoghar is famous for PEDA, Rasagullah. So can be enjoyed very well.
Samosa and few types of chats are could be an excellent spicy food here.
Finish the pooja and can go many places to visit in deoghar or nearby deoghar like Nanadan pahar, Satsang, Tapovan, Trikut Pahad etc.
Railway station/ Bus stand is quite nearby ( 10-15 mins walkable from Mandir).
Autos(Tampoo)/Jeeps/Rickshaws/Tanga(horse)/State Bus/Private Bus etc for transportation.
Anything that you want to ask or add, just comment here.
Hope for a pleasant coming and stay in our lovable Deoghar.
