Hanuman Garhi: Experience the Divine Presence
Hanuman Garhi Temple in Ayodhya is a famous Hanuman temple situated on a high mound on the right bank of the Saryu River. It is said that Hanuman Ji always resides in his physical form in this temple. Lord Shri Ram himself had given the land to Hanuman Ji, on which his famous temple is situated. Since then, it has gotten the additional name “House of Lord Hanuman,” and it is believed that a devotee who offers red clothes to Lord Hanuman is freed from all his diseases. It was built by a Nawab of Ayodhya. Let us know the reason behind this.
It is said that after returning to Ayodhya after conquering Lanka, Lord Ram gave a place to his dear friend and devoted devotee Shri Hanuman ji to stay. Since then, devotee Shri Hanuman ji has been residing in this cave. Today, this place is known as Hanuman Garhi Temple.
