UJJAIN - RATLAM.
This line is very well connected by railways . But still .
There is no train between 9:40 to 16:00. (except 2 Weekly train).
At this Time , make ur schedule. such that , u can catch the train .
.. ❌ Do not take Buses ❌
The BUS lobby are just making fool
They may take 100 - 120 ₹ per head.
The buses are in very pathetic conditions .. the driver may tell that they will complete journey in 2 hrs , by taking halt at only badnagar. . But it will halt at each and every small village en- route . and total journey time will be near 3:30 - 4 hrs.
The bus goes via Bardnagar route . ..
The capacity of buses may be 50 - 60. seats , but due to greediness they will fill. the whole bus with 80+ passenger . Many of them will stand at the AISLE ..

Ujjain is one of the underrated religious city of India. Few historical references for this city are listed below -
For Devotees -
1) Sinhasth (Kumbh) mela at every 12 years, last held in April-2016, mainly to take a bath / dip in river Shipra (most famous ghats are - Ram ghat / Narsingh ghat). And, the reason for sinhasth to be organizated in Ujjain as one of the four place is, during sagar manthan, drops of nectar had falllen in Ujjain too.
