Shree Raam and Seetaa Jee are sat on a throne in Pushpak Vimaan (airplane). On the way Shree Raam showed Seetaa Jee places of interest. He showed Her where Lakshman killed Meghnaad, where Angad and Hanumaan killed many brave Raakshas, where Raavan and Kumbhkarn were killed. "Here I built the bridge and established Shiv Ling." Both bowed to Shiv Jee there. On the way wherever Prabhu took rest, showed those places to Seetaa Jee. 

Vimaan landed in Dandak Van where Agastya etc Muni lived. They met them affectionately. Then they came to Chitrakoot and met other Muni. They flew over Yamunaa Jee, Gangaa Jee, Prayaag Jee, and Trivenee (see Sangam). He showed Ayodhyaa Jee also to Seetaa Jee. Prabhu took bath in Trivenee and offered alms to Braahman.

Then Shree Raam said to Hanumaan - "You go to Avadh Puree in disguise of a Braahman and tell Bharat our welfare and bring the news about him." Hanumaan went away to Avadh Puree. Shree Raam went to Bharadwaaj Muni. Muni worshipped Him in various ways and blessed Him.

Then Raam headed further and arrived at Nishaad's place. Seetaa Jee worshipped Gangaa Jee again and Gangaa Jee blessed Her. Nishaad got very happy to see Him again. He fell on His feet but Shree Raam embraced him affectionately.
