  Har Ki Pauri, literally meaning “the steps of Lord Hari (Vishnu)”, is the most sacred and iconic ghat on the banks of the Ganga River in Haridwar. It is believed to be the precise point where the holy river descends from the Himalayas into the plains, and is revered as the spot where Lord Vishnu once left his footprints, known as the Vishnucharan Paduka. Legend holds that a few drops of the divine nectar (Amrit) fell here at Brahmakund, making the waters exceptionally sacred and cleansing for pilgrims who bathe here in the belief it cleanses sins and brings spiritual merit.In the evenings, Ganga Aarti unfolds at Brahmakund with a breathtaking ritual—priests chant shlokas, ring temple bells, and move flaming lamps in harmony, while thousands of DIYAs float on the river, creating a mesmerizing spectacle of light, devotion, and sound. The ghat was originally built by King Vikramaditya in memory of his brother Bhartrihari around the 1st century BC.

First built as a jute rope bridge in the late 1800s, Lakshman Jhula was converted to a sturdy iron structure in 1929–30 after a devastating flood in 1924 washed away its predecessorAlthough it was closed to vehicles long ago and restricted to pedestrians in 2020 due to safety concerns, it has remained a beloved pilgrimage spot—a symbol of spiritual and historical significance.
