Sphatik Shila is a densely forested area on the banks of Mandakini River, situated few kilometres away from the Janaki Kund. Tourists can find a large boulder bearing impressions of Lord Rama's footprints. It is said that Lord Rama did shringar to his wife Sita here. Moreover, it is the same place where Sita was bitten by Jayant, disguised as a crow.
