Situated on the opposite side of Vishnupad temple in Gaya city of Bihar, Sita Kund is an invaluable heritage from a cultural point of view. Sita Kund is associated with the Ramayana period, and it is believed that Sita Mata donated the body of her father-in-law, Dashrath. Sita Kund is a small temple situated on the other bank of the river Falgu, just opposite the Vishnupad temple.
According to another legend, Sita Mata took a bath in this pool while going to exile for 14 years along with Rama and Lakshmana and hence the name Sita Kund. It is a witness to many cultural developments that took place in the past and even today people are carrying forward the same custom as a tradition.
