Abstract: 

The origin of Indian History is generated more or less by the literary text written by great poets and writers such as Kalidasa, Valmiki, VedVyas, Tulsidas before or later of the 3rd millennium BCE. The literature has played a very important role in developing the Indian culture. As we know Sanskrit literature begins with the oral literature of the Rig-Veda a collection of sacred hymns dating to the period 1500–1200 BCE.[1]. The main objective of writing this paper is to identify the various literary evidences of historic and religious place of Ramtek in Maharashtra and to understand the architecture of the place with context to its evolution and geographical setting so as to understand the importance of this place. Ramtek today has been evolved as a Religious place for pilgrims because people have a belief on the fact that this is the place where Lord Rama, Lord Sita and Lord Lakshmana rested here on the hills of Ramtek when in exile. The major attraction here in Ramtek are the Rama temple which is believed to be more than 600 yr old. My Research is focused on the mention of Ramtek in various literary text and justify the location of the Ramtek with its Architecture.
