Gita Bhawan is an ancient complex, which is located on the banks of the river Ganga. The beautiful paintings, related to the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, on the walls enhance the beauty of the place. Every year, travellers in huge numbers come to take a dip in the sacred water of the Ganga river.

Gita Bhawan has around 1000 rooms where devotees can stay free of cost. Besides taking a dip in the holy river Ganga, devotees can meditate and listen to the preachings of saints at this bhawan. Vegetarian food, sweets and other kitchen items are sold here at reasonable prices.

An ayurvedic department, apparel shop, book shop and the Laxmi-Narayan Temple are also present in the complex. As mentioned in the scriptures, the medicines available in the ayurvedic department are prepared using Himalayan herbs and water of the river Ganga.
