Kuśabhavanapura—Sultanpur on the Gumti in Oudh (Thornton’s Gazetteer). It was visited by Hiuen Tsiang. Same as Kuśapura. It was the capital of Kuśa, son of Rāmachandra. It is called Kuśasthalī in the Vāyu P. (Uttara, ch. 26). The capital was removed from Ayodhyā by Kuśa when he succeeded his father Rāmachandra, king of Oudh (Raghuvamśa, XV, v. 97; xvi, v. 25).
