  Located on the banks of river Ghaggar (Sarayu) in Guptar Ghat, Raja Mandir in Faizabad has been associated with numerous mythological stories time and again. The temple houses stunningly carved idols of many Hindu Gods and Goddesses, which are ornamentally clad in silken fabrics and rich jewelry. The exquisite construction of the temple reflects the brilliance of Hindu architecture. Once known for its association with Lord Sri Ram, the ruler of Ayodhya; the shrine is now a regular temple with statues of numerous deities. The location of Raja Mandir just on the bank of the river makes a mesmerizing reflection of the shrine in the waters which is a beholding sight for the eyes. The umpteen devotees who throng the place all year round, also believe that a dip in the holy waters of the river can cleanse their souls of all sins.
