Hanuman Ghat

Hanuman Ghat

The Hanuman Ghat is connected to the Indian epic The Ramayana. The Hanuman Ghat, Varanasi Uttar Pradesh is located at Juna Akhara. The Hanuman Ghat was previously called Rameshwaram Ghat because it is popularly believed that Lord Sri Ram created this Ghat with his own hands. There is another well known belief that the Vaishnavaite pilgrim called Vallabhacharya meditated over here for many years. He used to preach the glories of Lord Krishna to his followers by sitting at the Hanuman Ghat.

This clean Ghat demands respect from Indians and foreign tourists alike. There is a marked difference between the Hanuman Ghat and the other Ghats of Varanasi, by being cleaner and more concrete. There are two temples located beside the Hanuman Ghat. Believed to be erected by the great preacher Tulsidas, it is a great attraction for the tourists. You shall be amazed to see the outstanding image of the Ruru Bhairava over here. It is one among the eight popular Bhairavas.
