Located on the bank of River Sarayu and near Guptar Ghat, Raja Mandir has been associated with number of mythological stories. Location of the Raja Mandir just on the bank of river makes a mesmerizing reflection of the shrine in the water which is a beholding sight for eyes. The umpteen devotees who throng the place all year round also believe that a dip in the holy water of the river can cleanse their soul of all the sins. The temple houses stunningly carved idols of many Hindu Gods and Goddess which are ornamentally clad in silk fabrics and rich jewellery. The exquisite construction of the temple reflects the brilliance of Hindu architecture. Once known for its association with Lord Shri Ram, the King of Ayodhya; the shrine is now a regular temple with statues of numerous deities.
