It is the most beautiful bathing ghat of the Payaswini river believed to be capable of absolving a person from all his sins.
It is believed that Lord Ram bathed here with Laxman and Sita Ji on their arrival in Chitrakoot.
The famous saint-poet Tulsidas is also believed to have lived here for quite some time. It is the place where he is believed to have darshan of Ram and Laxman.
Tulsidas was preparing sandal-paste for himself, when Ram and Laxman appeared before him as two children.
Ram asked him to mark a tilak on his forehead.Tulsidas did this even without recognizing Him as God whom he so devotedly worshipped and for whose darshan he was craving.Hanuman ji made Tulsidas recognize his Lord by uttering the famous couplet :- The devotees usually take a dip here before going for Parikrama and darshan of Kamtanath Ji.
There is a group of temples here on the Ghat which is known as Puri and some devotees go around this group of temples also in the Parikrama.
Many important places like Raghava Prayag Ghat,Mattgajendreshwar Swami, Parna Kuti and Yagya Vedi are nearby.
Ramghat is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Chitrakoot.
The serene ghat lining the Mandakini River is where Lord Ram, Sita and Lakshman appeared in front of the famous poet Tulsidas and he used to sit on the riverside and write Ram Charitra Manas.
Ramghat is the centre of all religious activities in Chitrakoot and the most popular bathing ghat.
It is believed that taking a dip at Ramghat would absolve a person of all sins. The fragrance of incense sticks and the hymn of holy chants by the saints in saffron clothes at Ramghat makes the soul calm and touched.
You can go for boating in the river and enjoy the beauty of this place until the evening and attend the arti with beautiful diya lightings, sounds of bell and holy chants.
