Where Rama Quenched Hanuman’s Thirst Hanuman Dhara

After Hanuman had set fire to the entire Kingdom of Lanka with his tail, his whole body was consumed in flames and he was burning in pain and was very thirsty.

Lord Ram pierced a Rock with an arrow in a mountain to create a spring .

Since, then the spring is known as Hanuman Dhara.

A narrow stream of water emerges from the rock crevice and falls directly on the idol.

Apart from that, there is a nearby well that never dries up, which is also considered sacred.
