Haridwar
The literal meaning of Haridwar is ‘Gateway to the Lord’ due to the endless list of temples situated here. Pilgrims visit here from all over the world to perform various rituals along the ghats of River Ganga. Har Ki Pauri remains the most popular ghat of Haridwar. It is nestling with some of the most significant temples. The evening Ganga aarti at Har Ki Pauri is not to be missed as it lights up this ghat like a new bride with thousands of clay lamps floating on the water. Bharat Mata Temple of Haridwar is a massive temple with 8-storey structure. Each floor of the temple flaunts a different mythological story. Chandi Devi Temple, perched on Neel Parvat, is also visited by many by taking the cable car ride. It is believed that this temple has been built on the place where Goddess Chandi killed Chanda-Munda.The literal meaning of Haridwar is ‘Gateway to the Lord’ due to the endless list of temples situated here.
