Sita Kund, Hindu pilgrimage site in Sitamarhi district, Bihar, India
Sita Kund is a natural spring in the Sitamarhi region whose waters maintain a steady temperature year-round. The site features pools fed by the spring where visitors can bathe and experience the water directly.
The spring has been revered by Hindu communities for centuries and linked to Sita, a central figure in the Ramayana epic. The broader region experienced administrative changes in the mid-20th century as districts were reorganized.
The site holds deep meaning for local Hindu communities who associate it with the goddess Sita from ancient texts. Devotees view the spring waters as sacred and visit to perform personal prayers and cleansing rituals.
The best time to visit is between October and March when the weather is pleasant and not too hot. Visitors should bring comfortable clothing and swimming attire to enjoy the water.
The spring draws from underground mineral sources that give the water a distinct composition found nowhere else nearby. Some visitors report unusual properties of the water that set it apart from other water sources in the area.
