Naya/Phuta Ghat:

Naya Ghat was previously known as Phuteswar Ghat. According to John Princep there is a Phuteswar Shiva Temple after which the Ghat gets its name.  In 20th century Narsimha Japal (Bihar) renovated the ghat after which it was renamed as Naya Ghat. At the top of the ghat there is a palace of Narsimha Japal. Besides Phuteswar Temple, a Hanuman temple is also there. Local people take bath here also the washer men use this ghat.
