| | Haridwar 2 |
| | Hindus believe that the Ganges is not only a river, but also the Goddess Ganga, and thus in bathing in the Ganges one comes directly into contact with divinity (and this is the reason it is believed to be so purifying). | | | As at all Hindu pilgrimage places, Haridwar has a group of hereditary pilgrimage priests (pandas), who serve their clients by helping to arrange for and conduct any necessary rituals. | | | Aside from its importance as a place to take a holy bath in Ganges, Haridwar is also an important site for some of the last rites for the dead. |
