THEN
- Sita went into the earth, while she was living in Valmiki ashram in the
forest of Sitamarhi. When Rama's Ashwamedha Yaga Horse went here, Ram's sons
Lava & Kusha arrested it. All the
great warriors of Lord Rama Including Laxman, Bharat, Saturghna, were defeated
in the fierce battle. At last Rama had to come himself to fight the two
children. No one knew that both boys were the sons of Rama. It was then that
Sita came to the battlefield, and asked Her mother, the mother earth, to take
her into her lap.
NOW
– This place is situated in the bank of River Ganga of National highway 2
between Prayagaraj and Varanasi. There is a big and beautiful Sita Samahit
Temple and also 108ft. tall Hanuman Statue which is said to be the tallest in
the world.
