Har-Ki Pauri – Haridwar

Quite a change of climate from Dharamsala, this is the holy & very hot city of Haridwar, and this area is called Har-Ki Pauri, where people from all over India flock to bathe in the ghats of the Ganges. Surprisingly the water here is of clear turquoise color – well i don’t know about the bacterial count, but Hindus believe if you bathe in this river your sins will be purged (so who cares about little bacs, rite?) . Plenty of plastic jug seller to bring the water home. (Sorry guys, will not be bringing u any holy water). The beautiful ghats are so colorful during the day, women spread saris across the floor to dry them.
