Haridwar.
Haridwar
is considered very holy, as this is the point from where the
Ganges emerges from the Himalayas to begin its slow progress
across the plains. The main ghat 'Har ki Pauri' (the footsteps
of God) is suppose to be 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 of Vishnu left on a stone here.
Upon
arrival, check into Glass House on the Ganges.
