Tomb and still one of the highest buildings in Faizabad.
Bahu Begum ka Maqbara, the Tomb of chief consort Begum Unmatuzzohra Bano also known as Bahu Begum, is a memorial built for the queen of Nawab Shuja-ud-Daula. It is one of the tallest buildings in Faizabad of the Ayodhya district, Uttar Pradesh and is a notable example of non-Mughal Muslim architecture. This monument is a victim of neglect and is depleting.

A former Buddhist vihara (cave with cells) that became a Hindu temple. It is dotted with little shrines and if you stand on the topmost terrace you get a splendid view of Ayodhya, one that includes a cluster of small white buildings at the base of the hill that turns out to be a Muslim graveyard.

Palace of Gold
The Bhawan is frequented by scores of visitors every year. The temple is widely known for the images of Sri Rama and Sita wearing gold crowns and because of this the Bhawan is also referred to as Sone-ka-Ghar.
Visitors to Ayodhya must make a move towards Hanuman Garhi. It is a massive structure in the shape of a four-sided fort with circular bastions at each corner. The temple is highly revered for its imposing architecture and its religious value.
It is said to be built by Kush, Lord Rama's son. Legend has it that he almost destroyed the water-living Nagas (semi-divine snake people) because he suspected them of stealing his amulet. Only Lord Shiva's intervention saved the semi-divine snakes. Khush then established this temple showing the Nagas worshipping Lord Shiva, his father's favourite deity. Another version of this legend states that the lost amulet was found by a Nag-kanya (young girl from the Naga tribe), who fell in love with him, and as she was Lord Shiva's devotee he constructed this temple for her.
