Literally the 'Gateway to God', Haridwar is where the River Ganga descends to the plains from the Himalayas.

The ghats are where most of the religious activity is centred and are teeming with people. Popular also with foreign tourists seeking the experience of 'spiritual India', Haridwar is famous for its Ayurvedic therapies and herbal healing. Thousands gather at Har ki Paudi every evening to partake in the ritual where the air resounds with gongs, drums and chanting and priests coax hypnotic sounds out of conch shells, all reaching a crescendo. Later, a myriad diyas and marigold flowers float in the waters. A breathtaking sight
