Haridwar is located on the banks of river Ganga; this makes it a sacred town for all the worshipers. This town is believed to be blessed by the holy trinity; Bhramha, Vishnu, and Mahesh. Haridwar is termed as the ‘Gateway to the Gods’. Daily millions of people come here to take blessings from the river and to see the divine Ganga Aarti in Haridwar.  

According to a mythological story and believe, when the river Ganga flows on the remaining of the ancestors of Saint Bhagirath they got moksha (free from the cycle of death and rebirth).  This tradition is followed by mostly every Hindu, they offer remaining of their death ancestors and relatives in the river to expect moksha for them. The Ganga Aarti in Haridwar at the Har ki Pauri started in the early 1910’s. This tradition in Haridwar was started by Pundit Madan Mohan Malviya.

    Meghana's 6 days trip to Haridwar

    Hello Back2hodlidays, We recently had a trip to Mussoorie Uttrakhand with the help of Travel assistant shreya from Back2holidays. The planning and execution were done very well. We have covered almost all the places as per the plan only 2 were missed. Shreya was very helpful from the start of p
    lanning to trip till the end. She has provided all the required information what ever we have asked for.. Coming to the trip, had a really good time. Only the 1st hotel at Deharadun was not up to the mark either the rooms not the food was that great. The remaining 2 hotels for the stay were good. Stay and food in Mussoorie was nothing to be questionable, but the staff in Danaulti (The Groove Garden) were bit harsh and food was also not soo good. The driver travelled along with us was also good and no issues , but it would be really helpful if the driver allocated are locals or frequent visitors of that place, as our driver was not aware of all the places it was bit difficult for us to know the routes and were dependent on the google maps which delayed our jrny. Rest all was really good, had a great time throughout the trip. Thanks Shreya for all ur support during this period of jrny.

    Ravindra's 6 days trip to Haridwar

    Overall we enjoyed the tour and very professionally arranged. Good part- 1. Bus was good and driver very good. 2. Very accommodating to last minute changes 3. ⁠Hotels at Rishikesh and Jim Corbett were very good Bad part- No plan to put bad part in TT review. Just for your understanding
    . ⁠Traffic - it’s not something anybody could do anything but little help in planning activities could have been useful.
