Sacred Steps to Saryu
Saryu Ghat is the principal ghat on Ayodhya's sacred Saryu river, where pilgrims have performed ritual bathing for millennia. The Saryu is believed to have descended from Brahma's Manasarovar, making its waters supremely purifying.
Bathing at Saryu Ghat is considered essential for every Ayodhya pilgrim, with special merit accrued on Amavasya, Purnima, and during Kartik month.
