Sitajakhala



Sitajakhala is famed for an ancient temple on the banks of Killing River in Morigaon District. The temple wall is filled with the statues of Lord Hanuman and Goddess Sita.

The temple is connected with the river by several stone steps. According to legends, Sage Valmiki built the stone steps for the Goddess to go to the river from the temple when she was pregnant and left by Lord Ram. So the steps got the name Sita Jakhala.

The place is rich in cattle population. It is easily accessible from Jagiroad. Jagiroad Railway Station is the nearest railhead.
