Some believe the Ramayana is real as it reflects deep moral and spiritual truths and has been passed down through generations. But from a purely factual historical perspective, it's hard to verify all aspects as completely true.
The Ramayana's ending is quite remarkable. Rama finally vanquishes Ravana in a great battle. Sita has to go through an ordeal of fire (Agni Pariksha) to prove her chastity as there were doubts among the people. Once proven pure, she reunites with Rama. Their return to Ayodhya is a grand celebration. The city is filled with joy as Rama takes the throne and ushers in an era of peace and prosperity. This ending has been told and retold in various forms in Hindu culture, not just in religious texts but also in art, dance, and theater.
Ramayana is a mix of both. It has elements of historical and cultural significance, but also contains mythical and symbolic elements, so it's not purely a true story or just fiction.
