Saryu River

The Saryu River, also known as the Sarayu, is a significant river in northern India, flowing through the states of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. It originates from the Himalayan region and travels approximately 900 kilometers before merging into the Ghaghara River. The river holds cultural and religious importance, especially in Hindu traditions, as it is associated with the epic Ramayana and is considered sacred. The Saryu provides water for agriculture, supports local ecosystems, and sustains communities along its banks, playing a vital role in the region's ecological and cultural landscape.
