Where the Ganga enters the plains

Haridwar

Haridwar, the 'Gateway to the Gods', is where the Ganga descends from the Himalayas into the plains. The evening Ganga Aarti at Har Ki Pauri and a dip in the swift, clear river draw pilgrims through the year, and the city hosts the Kumbh every twelfth year — next in 2033.

The guiding presence

Where the Ganga enters the plains

Haridwar is one of the four Kumbh cities and one of the seven holiest tirthas (Sapta Puri). Snan at Har Ki Pauri during festivals like Somvati Amavasya and Baisakhi is especially auspicious.
