Hari Ki PauriHari ki pauri ghat was built by King Vikramaditya to commemorate the descending of Ganga after years of
difficult prayers and fasting done by his ancestor Bhagirathi. Lord Vishnu is believed to have left his foot
prints on a rock at this ghat. Everyday at twilight the Har ki pauri ghat comes to life with singing prayers and lit up lamps along the Ganges wh
people in hundreds and thousands view this mesmerizing and cleansing ritual. It is believed that the one who bathes at Har ki pauri gets rid of all s
and completely cleanses their soul. Floral tributes and lit up diyas floating on the Ganges is the most enchanting sight one gets at this gha
Chandi D

Sati Kund
This is the holy place where the wife of Lord Shiva, Mata Sati is believed to have done the ritual of self-immolation. The ghat here is thus famo

HARIDWAR SIGHTSEEING
Har-ki-Pauri
The Main ghat and is supposed to be at the precise spot where the Ganges leaves the mountains and enters the plains. Consequently, the river's
power to wash away sins at this spot is superlative and endorsed by a footprint Vishnu (God of Hindu) left in a stone here. The ghat is on the
west bank of a canal through which the Ganges is diverted just to the north. Each evening at sunset priests perform Ganga Aarti (the rive
worship ceremony) here, when lights are set on the water to drift downstream while priests engage in elaborate rituals. In addition to the main
ghat, a series of smaller ghats extends along the canal bank, with large orange and white life-guard towers at intervals to ensure that bathing
pilgrims don't get swept away.
Bara Bazaar
On the north side of the canal, between Har-Ki-Pauri and the Upper Rd, is colorful Bara Bazaar. Along with the religious paraphernalia, o
prasaad (food offered to the gods, images of the deities, religious pamphlets etc) are scores of tiny stalls crammed along both sides of bazaa
selling an assortment of goods including shawls, brassware, glass bangles, wooden whistels, bamboo canes and can baskets.
Mansa Devi Temple
Atop a hill overlooking Haridwar, this temple is dedicated to the goddess mansa. Mansa is one of the forms of Shakti Durga who makes wishe
