Hanumat Dham

Hanumat Dham is a prominent Hindu temple complex dedicated to Lord Hanuman located at Visrat Ghat on the banks of the Khannaut River in Shahjahanpur, Uttar Pradesh. It is best known for its 104-foot tall orange statue of Hanuman, one of the tallest in Uttar Pradesh. The complex includes shrines, landscaped grounds and riverfront ghats, serving as a major religious and tourist landmark visited especially on Tuesdays, Saturdays and Hanuman Jayanti.

Visitors can expect a large temple complex centered on a towering 104-foot Hanuman statue visible from a distance, smaller shrines for darshan, open courtyards and landscaped gardens along the Khannaut River at Visrat Ghat. The setting is riverside and open, with paved walkways, steps leading to the ghat, and areas for prayer and circumambulation. Devotees offer prayers, light lamps and view the statue up close, while general visitors can walk the grounds, take photographs in outer areas and observe river views.

Hanumat Dham was developed as a modern religious complex on the historic Visrat Ghat, traditionally associated with the Khannaut River. The 104-foot Hanuman statue, the central landmark, was constructed in the early 2010s by the Hanumat Dham trust and devotees and has since become a defining landmark of Shahjahanpur.

The site is dedicated to Lord Hanuman and holds significant religious importance for local devotees. It is especially crowded on Tuesdays and Saturdays, considered auspicious for Hanuman worship, and during festivals such as Hanuman Jayanti and Ram Navami when special prayers and gatherings are held.
