Dant Dhawan Kunda About~ The city of Ayodhya is filled with various places that reflect the life of Lord Rama and Dant Dhawan Kund is no exception..  Location~ The Dant Dhawan Kund is located near Hanuman Garhi mythologically in the city of Ayodhya.. Mythology~ The Dant Dhawan Kund is said that Lord Rama with his brothers used to come here to cleanse their teeth on the bank of this very kund... Present Condition~ Because of its careless visitors the surroundings and the water of this holy kund has become dirty as they throw plastic wrappers and other trash around or in this kund.The railings of the kund that used to surround it,is no longer there.. Conclusion~Thus,we must protect this heritage of ours and take the responsibility to promote it positively as it holds such a great importance in the pages of Ayodhya’s history.... ~By Anandi Singh  V-Chrysanthemum
