Guptar Ghat

The Guptar Ghat has been constructed to provide worshipers to take a holy dip in River Saryu as well as perform the prayers as they wished.

The Ghat has steps that lead to the river bed and the steps immersed in water have been deliberately widened to afford a wide area for the pilgrims. The Ghat also houses the famous Chakra Harji Vishnu temple and the Raja Mandir.

Lord Ram is believed to have entered the temple and vanished or disappeared (Gupt) hence the name given to the Ghat. The attraction is believed to be there from the time of Lord Ram who entered the temple and took Jal-Samadhi here.
